Bessinger's BBQ Onion Rings Copycat
This Bessinger’s BBQ Onion Rings Copycat appetizer was my first copycat recipe attempt. The family was ecstatic as I commenced the preparations. The rings tasted good with a crunchy, sweet taste and a hint of corn meeting that tender sweet onion flavor. Read my post on the RecipeLion blog for all the details!

I just want to say as an employee at Bessingers, the recipe is wrong and not even close.

Bev, you are right, that's exactly where the Barbecue aspect comes from. Thanks for the comments everyone!

Hi, just wanted to point out that this was my first attempt to copycat the rings, but didn't quite make the grade. The rings taste good, but are not as doughy or sweet as the real thing. I am trying to perfect/tweak the recipe to get closer in future attempts. Will update as I progress. Thanks, John K. www.restauranrecipesecrets.info
