Looking for something different for your Super Bowl Party this weekend? Try these Beer Battered Onion Rings.

This recipe comes to us courtesy of the Gordon Biersch Brewery Restaurant.

Ingredients

*2 large yellow onions
*2 whole eggs
*2 1/2 cups flour
*1 teaspoon baking powder
*1/2 cup corn starch
*pinch salt and pepper
*1 bottle Gordon Biersch Märzen

*milk enough to soak onion rings
*flour enough to dredge onion rings
*oil

Directions:

1. Combine dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. Add the beer and eggs mixing constantly. If the mixture seems too thick, adjust consistency by adding more beer or some water. Allow to rest at least one hour before using.
2. Peel and cut the onions into 1-inch rings. Soak in milk. Coat rings in the additional flour so the batter will adhere better to rings.
3. Fill frying pan will oil (enough to complete cover rings). Heat oil to approximately 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Dip onion rings in batter and drop in oil. Cook until golden brown. Remove from oil and place on paper towels to dry. Serve hot with barbecue sauce on side.
4. Variations: The same procedures will work well with shrimp, other vegetables, chicken strips or your own creations.
