 today we're making hamburgers onion rings and this recipe is the bomb the crunchiest onion ring ever I'm doing a hand made milkshake using a fork which is the way I always did it growled up I never used a mixer and y'all are gonna love this video all right best ever onion rings is in our third cookbook and I'm just using patties that are already made up they're really big though I think I'm gonna cut them they should be the size of your bun so I want them to be about that big I could throw them all in there but I want them to all fit in my skillet at the same time I'm making three so I might make two smaller ones and then see if a bigger one will fit for Chris we'll see I got this meat reduced so it's a little brown around the edges but it's still absolutely fine it's on sale actually it was reduced so it's 4.2 the pound reduced I was like I'll buy the reduced meat I brown some of it for lasagna I don't like me and Amy don't like our patties to be like enormous matter of fact we want first smashed a little bit I'll get that one to her and then Chris can have it you want a big one press it'll take longer to cook yours there's Chris I'll have it all in there and a little grow on I'll make it for the dogs can have a snack tonight such an easy supper so you got time while your burgers are cooking to mix up your onion ring dough all right so all I do is salt and pepper my meat and I have a new seasoning that I absolutely love on hamburgers and we're gonna use it and I'll season them when I flip them over the first time as well the pitch a little salt and pepper on them and then I got this new seasoning it's a gourmet collection and spice blend it's called roasted garlic red bell pepper and oh my gosh as it make hamburgers taste amazing yes it's better than my steak and chomp so I got it raw you can get it at Ross Marshall's Bales any of those types of home goods and you can get it on Amazon on our website as well I think they've got this this one oh it's so good y'all delish it is so good that's all you need so we're gonna let those cook and I'm gonna turn them up on high cuz I like from to get nice and toasty brown make sure it's centered on the stove and then we're gonna hop over here and we're gonna mix up our onion ring batter so we're gonna be using three quarter cups of flour are you self-rising doesn't make them a little crunchier so if you have it use it you're gonna use an 8 cup heaping cup of cornstarch we're gonna put in a teaspoon of onion powder a teaspoon of roasted garlic powder and a half teaspoon of ground cayenne pepper then we added the three quarter cups of the milk and that's our magic solution it's good to make fish with it too if you want to let's look at it that means some red mittens because it's getting closer to Christmas pretty burger I'm on my mind cuz I don't want all that grease in mine I'm already helping make it enormous because hamburger meat is not good for you all right so we'll let those keep brownies and it's the one splatter and now we're gonna put in three quarter cups of milk into the starter and mix it up and we'll just leave that milk out because I am going to mix up a milkshake and let y'all see how I do it while we're cooking tonight just making a good hamburger meal just mix it up really good with a whisk there you go put it on here next to your pan and now we're gonna cut up this onion in some larger slices and then we're gonna drop them all right so we're gonna slice them into pretty good rings went crooked almost crooked rings and I usually drop one section at a time and you don't drop a whole lot at one time and you don't want it to be too hot and get them to brown too fast and want to cook a little bit and this is a sweet onion so I'm gonna go ahead and drop these rings in there first and we'll cook it in batches I just wrote those all tastes good now if you've got an air fryer you can cook them and put them in there and keep them hot while you're making supper and that way you know everything she did don't have to trade so I'm just gonna mix them up in this batter a little bit and then we're gonna drop them and you just have to drop them and you just have to cook them in batches if you want to be pretty if you're not worried about them being pretty and just throw them in there but they'll stick together if you don't all right while you're waiting on that you see just let them be in there about two minutes flip them in the two more minutes I was gonna season this side of the hamburger but quick but the star of the show tonight is the onion rings and the shake everybody knows how to make a hamburger so after they've been in there a couple minutes flip them over and this is a really crunchy tasty batter everybody in the house will love them so make sure you make plenty and like I said if you want to keep them hot while you're cooking your other stuff just throw them in the air fryer they'll actually stay nice and crunchy and turn out good for you turn this down a little bit it's a little high all right here goes the rings into here you hear how crunchy they are so good y'all so it takes a few minutes to make a big you know a whole onions worth and so get ready to stand over it for a few minutes to finish them up and we'll be right back I'm gonna show you how I make my milkshakes we love boy bell ice cream it really is the best ever it's the only ice cream you can buy that when it melts it's actually milk and liquid instead of foam it's delicious so we got some espresso bits right here these are from Publix we love them we're going to grind them and we're gonna make a coffee bean espresso milkshake so I've got me a little coffee grinder right here and actually got coffee in it but since this is a coffee milkshake we did use the rest of our ground beef for the dogs so they can have a treat tonight and these are pretty strong so I would think probably that much will do it yeah that's probably alright so we've got the meat out we've got the onion rings in the air fryer and I've wiped off some of the grease because it doesn't make a mess when you make this kind of suffer I've got the bones on top of the rings I'm gonna turn it on while we make our milkshakes and then we're gonna eat and I'll show y'all how everything looks and I just put it in my air fryer it's automatically sit on 315 I turn it on it's gonna keep that hot and those onion rings are nice and crooked anyway so we're gonna mix up a milkshake I'm gonna show you how I do it simple really simple and easy I use a fork a taller fork a dinner fork I'm silent for it and there's our pieces okay we're gonna put a couple of skews of ice cream in here some espresso beans and when I was growing up most of the time I would make my milkshakes like this instead of using this powder that we made out of the cocoa beans I would just use regular old Hershey's cocoa and I would put it in there like that and I would use a fork just like I'm doing oh and these are those coffee espresso beans that we ground up and they're like toffee in the middle they're not like a real coffee bean and then they have a dark chocolate they're dipped in dark chocolate and so I just always used a fork when I made a milkshake and it works good you just kind of go up and down with it back and forth like this to break up the ice cream and then towards the end you smash it up against the sides and it makes the perfect milkshake and you don't have a mess to clean up and you don't have you know a mixer to clean up and then you can just taste it and if you want to add more coffee bean or you just smash you know choose whatever you want to use bananas mash you up a banana that's good I'm putting a little more in there well that's good and it's a lot you know I'm gonna show you how pretty is I'm gonna serve it up in a in a thing let me turn this off or we burn up our buns so there you go you got it delicious that is a hand made milkshake cream delicious supper hamburgers milkshakes and onion rings can't get no better than that can you get some nice straw we need a fat straw for a milkshake this is a pretty straw I'll put it
