And the sauce is crazy good too!!

ingredients

Onion Rings:

  • 3-4 cups vegetable oil in a medium pot
  • 1 large Vidalia onion (try to pick one that is long, not wide)
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 2 Tbsp bacon drippings
  • 3 crispy cooked bacon strips, finely minced
  • 1 heaping cup all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • Salt

Bacon Ranch Dipping Sauce:

  • 1/3 cup buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 2 Tbsp mayo
  • 2 garlic cloves, pressed
  • 1 Tbsp bacon drippings
  • 2 crispy cooked bacon strips, finely minced
  • 1 Tbsp minced fresh dill weed
  • 1 Tbsp minced fresh parsley
  • Salt and fresh cracked black pepper

directions

  1. Preheat oil in a pot, over medium heat.
  2. Peel and slice whole onion to create rings. Peel off the little, clear membrane that is in between the onion rings.
  3. In a medium mixing bowl whisk milk, bacon drippings, flour, baking powder, paprika and salt together until smooth.
  4. Crumble crispy bacon strips and then mince them as finely as possible with a knife.
  5. Add minced bacon bits into the batter and mix until evenly incorporated.
  6. Dip a few onion rings into the batter, covering it completely, and gently add them to the heated oil, once at a time.
  7. Cook onion rings in batches until deep golden. You will want to cook over medium heat that way batter doesn't get dark too fast, leaving you with a raw onion inside. Cooking it on medium heat for a longer period of time will cook the onion inside.
  8. For dipping sauce: whisk all ingredients together in a small bowl, until all incorporated. Make sure to use the same method for mincing bacon as you did for onion rings.
