GuruLet us introduce you how to make Southern fried ribs.
Many moons ago, we drove to a restaurant in Starkville, Mississippi to try out new menu items that were created for college students. Items like, Barbecue Sundae, Pulled-pork Nachos, Brisket Salad and Fried Ribs.
Yes, Fried Ribs.
Southern Fried Ribs
Great smoky flavor, with that addictive fried, salty crust that makes the South … well, the South.
What’s In It?
- 2 racks St. Louis-cut ribs (you could use baby backs)
- 3 Tbsp Your favorite rib rub
- 4 cups Peanut oil (for frying)
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 2 eggs
- 8 ounces Abita Strawberry Lager
- 1/2 cup All-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup Corn starch
- 1/2 Tbsp Black pepper
- 1/2 Tbsp Sea salt
- 1 Tbsp Slap Ya Mama Cajun seasoning
- Ubons BBQ Sauce
How to Make It
-
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.
-
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.
