Southern Fried Ribs
Never tried Fried Ribs? Great smoky flavor, with that addictive fried, salty crust that makes the South … well, the South.
Ingredients
- 2 racks St. Louis-cut ribs (you could use baby backs)
- 3 T Your favorite rib rub
- 4 c Peanut oil (for frying)
- 2 c Whole milk
- 2 eggs
- 8 ounces Abita Strawberry Lager
- 1/2 c All-purpose flour
- 1/2 c Corn starch
- 1/2 T Black pepper
- 1/2 T Sea salt
- 1 T Slap Ya Mama Cajun seasoning
- Ubons BBQ Sauce
Instructions
- Set smoker at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Clean, dry the ribs and remove silver skin from back side of each rack. Add generous amount of rub on both sides. Smoke ribs with pecan or hickory wood for 2 hours. DO NOT WRAP IN FOIL.
- OPTIONAL: You can baste a butter/soy sauce mixture over the ribs as they smoke.
- Allow racks to cool, then cut ribs into singles. Double dip each rib into egg/milk/beer wash, then the fry mix (dry ingredients), lightly dredging.
- Place ribs into a 350-degree Fahrenheit deep fryer of peanut oil and fry for about two minutes or until light golden brown. You don’t want a burnt crust.
- Slather with Ubon’s barbecue sauce, and set some aside for dipping.
