Equipment

  • Frying Pan or Pot
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Wood Skewers
  • Tall Pint Glass
  • Food Thermometer
  • Measuring cups and Spoons

Ingredients

  • 1 package Beef Frankfurters / Hot Dogs
  • Wooden Skewers (as many as needed)
  • 1 cup Flour
  • 1 cup Corn Meal
  • 2 ½ teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1 ½ Tablespoons Sugar
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 1 Egg lightly beaten
  • 2 Tablespoons Melted Shortening
  • 1 quart Vegetable Oil

Instructions

Prepare the Batter

  • Gather all of your ingredients and tools together before beginning, to make the process easier.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
  • Stir in the beaten egg, milk, and melted shortening. Don't over mix.
  • Pour the batter into a tall glass (a pint glass works well, you want it tall and narrow so the hot dog fits).

Heat the Oil

  • Fill a frying pan about ¾ full with the vegetable oil. Start heating the oil over medium-high heat (You will want the temperature to reach 350°-375°F before frying).

Prepare the Hot Dogs

  • While the oil is heating, insert the wooden skewers into the frankfurters/hot dogs lengthwise. Be sure the hot dogs are dry (pat with paper towels to remove excess moisture) Set aside.

Fry the Hot Dogs

  • When the until oil reaches 350°-375°F, dip the frankfurters/hot dogs in batter until well coated. You may need to roll them in the glass to get the entire hot dog coated.
  • Fry 2 to 4 corn dogs (depending on the size of your frying pan) at a time until lightly browned, about 3-4 minutes, turning them frequently. Tongs may help with this.
  • Remove using a slotted spoon or tongs. Drain the corn dogs on paper towels.
  • Serve with mustard or other favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

You can use all beef, or even turkey hot dogs, or other varieties of links as you prefer.
