This is a great recipe from a member of our cook-off team. Beef ribs are breaded and deep-fried. This would be best in an outdoor deep-fryer.
INGREDIENTS (for 4 servings):
- 3 quarts peanut oil for frying
- 2 tablespoons salt
- 3 tablespoons coarse ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons cayenne pepper
- 2 tablespoons garlic salt
- 2 tablespoons onion salt
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 6 eggs, beaten
- 6 pounds beef ribs, cut into single rib pieces
PREPARATION:
Heat the oil in a deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
In a medium bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, garlic salt, and onion salt. Place the flour in a separate bowl or plate. Whisk eggs in a large bowl. Rub the spice mixture onto all of the ribs. Dip each rib in egg, then in flour, then egg, then flour again.
Place the ribs in a fryer basket so they are not crowded, try 4 or 5 at a time depending on the size of your fryer. Cook for about 8 minutes. Remove to paper towels to drain. Continue with remaining ribs.
