Hickory Smoked Onion Rings

This was my supper last night...
I sliced an onion and smoked it in my drum....with a bit of hickory.


I smoked pretty heavy for a short period of time (about 20 minutes)...didn't want to cook the onions. After they had a some color and were starting to get translucent, I placed them in a baggie and let them chill in the fridge.



Made my beer batter using
1 cup of flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder

then added enough beer to make a pancake like batter...

I dipped the rings into flour, then into the batter before frying...

Made a spicy dipping sauce using ketsup, minced chipotles in adobo and minced onion....

They were pretty tasty...
