Method

Onion Rings

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onions

    Peel the large onions and slice them into thick rings, about 1/2 inch thick. Separate the rings from each other and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and beer until smooth. Let the batter rest for about 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Fry the Onion Rings

    In a deep pot or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Dip each onion ring into the batter, allowing excess batter to drip off, then carefully place them in the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Sweet Potato Fries

  1. 4

    Prepare the Sweet Potatoes

    Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  2. 5

    Season the Fries

    In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato strips with olive oil, salt, black pepper, paprika, and cinnamon until evenly coated.

  3. 6

    Bake the Fries

    Spread the sweet potato fries in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.

Texas Petal Sauce

  1. 7

    Mix the Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, hot sauce, and chopped green onions. Stir until well mixed. Chill until ready to serve.

Cinnabutter

  1. 8

    Prepare the Cinnabutter

    In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon until smooth and creamy. Chill until ready to serve.
