Beer Battered Vidalia Onion Rings

2 large Vidalia Onions
1 Cup flour
1 Cup beer (8 ounces)
2 Tbsp. corn meal
3/4 tsp. salt

Peel and slice the onions into rings.*

Combine dry ingredients, add beer, stir until fairly smooth.

Dip onions in batter, and then fry until golden brown.

Excellent dipped in ranch dressing. Try bacon ranch, too.

4 generous servings, 6 for normal people.

NOTES:
Augh... those cheapskates at the beer companies have changed the little bottles from 8 ounces to 7 ounces. You need a full cup of liquid for this batter, so if you use one of these, you'll need to add an ounce of water. Of course, you could open a 12 ounce bottle, pour out 8 ounces and drink the rest... but the beer you add to the batter should be room temperature (and the beer you drink should not).

* I actually cut the onion vertically into petals, they don't stick together as much in the fryer.  

Best in a deep fryer, but a skillet with hot oil will work, too.  If you're using a skillet, you should turn them over to brown both sides.
