Cooking Tips
One of the problems with making a corn dog in a frying pan is that it's hard to keep the round shape. If you have a corn dog fryer, that's the way to go. However, if you want to preserve the corn dog shape, you will want to pat the hot dogs dry and toss them in flour before you dip them in the corn dog batter. This will help the batter adhere to the hot dog and reduce slippage in the frying pan.

- 2 lil' smokies (package)
- 3/4 cup cornmeal
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1/3 tbsp salt
- 1.5 tsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 tbsp honey
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1 egg (large)
- Mix together the dry ingredients in a bowl: cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
- Mix together the dry ingredients in a separate bowl: vegetable oil, honey, and egg.
- Mix the dry and wet ingredients together and then add the buttermilk. Mix until well combined but do not over mix. Pour into a tall and thin glass about the size of the hot dog.
Place a frying pan on the stove set to medium heat. Add about 2 cups of vegetable oil, enough for the oil to be 1 inch deep.
Pat the hot dogs dry and toss them in some flour. Slide wooden toothpicks into the ends of the hot dogs, about 3/4 of the way up the hot dog's center. Dip the hot dog into the batter, rolling it until the hot dog is fully coated.
Fry the battered hot dog for about one minute, then rotate it 1/3 of the way around. Continue frying for another minute, then rotate it another 1/3 of the way around. Continue until corn dog is dark, golden brown.
Remove the corn dog nuggets and place them on a paper towel lined plate.
Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce ♨ and enjoy!
