Ingredients

3 pounds beef tripe, cut into 1/4 inch strips
vegetable oil for frying
1 egg
2 tablespoons barbeque sauce
1 1/2 cups milk
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning

Directions

1

Place the tripe into a large pot, and cover with a lot of water. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer 1 1/2 hours. Drain, then rinse well with cold water. Drain in a colander, squeezing out the excess water.
2

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
3

Beat together the egg, barbeque sauce, and milk in a mixing bowl. Stir in the flour, and mix until no dry lumps remain. Season with garlic powder, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
4

Dip the pieces of tripe into the egg batter, and allow the excess to drip off. Deep fry the tripe in the hot oil until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Allow the tripe to drain on a paper towel-lined plate before serving.
