Beer Batter Dipped Fried Onion Rings

Here is the best beer batter onion ring
recipe I have yet to come up with.
If you like that doughy thick batter fried
onion ring this recipe is for you.

Ingredients:
1 large sweet onion, peeled and sliced (1/2 inch slices)
2 cups Aunt Jemima Original Complete Pancake Mix
1 cup dark beer
1 teaspoon salt
Vegetable oil or shortening for frying

Directions:
Line a large cookie sheet with paper towel and set aside.
Melt vegetable shortening or heat oil
in a large skillet over medium high heat.
Make sure you have about 1-1 1/2 inches of oil.
NEVER LEAVE THE OIL UNATTENDED.
In a medium bowl, combine the pancake mix,
salt and beer. Stir until you have a thick batter.
Test the oil by dropping a tiny drop of batter in it
when it floats and bubbles, your oil is hot.

Dip the onion rings in the batter.
Make sure the ring is completely covered
as you pull it out of the batter
let the excess drip off.
Drop the battered onion ring in the hot oil.
The rings will puff up and brown on the bottom side,
carefully flip them over to brown the other side.
When both sides are browned, remove the onion ring
to the paper towel to drain.
When all onion rings have been fried,
remove skillet from heat and allow
the oil to cool completely before discarding.
