Corn Cob Puppies (Corn Dogs)

This is my own tried and true original corn dog recipe that I have tweaked and modified to my own personal taste. If you like fair dogs, you will love these! After cooking, place corn dog on a towel on a paper plate or wrap in a towel, top with mustard or ketchup, and enjoy!

INGRIDIENT

8 bun-length hot dogs (such as Gwaltney® Bun Sized Jumbo Franks)

1 quart vegetable oil for frying

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup corn meal

1 cup buttermilk

2 large eggs

2 tablespoons white sugar

2 tablespoons bacon drippings

2 teaspoons salt

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 pinch garlic powder

8 sturdy bamboo skewers

DIRECTION

Step: 1

Place hot dogs into a large pot of simmering water and keep hot.

Step: 2

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

Step: 3

Whisk flour, corn meal, buttermilk, eggs, sugar, bacon drippings, salt, baking powder, and garlic powder in a large bowl until moistened; beat batter until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes.

Step: 4

Remove a hot dog from the water and blot completely dry with paper towels; skewer the hot dog lengthwise with a bamboo skewer. Using the skewer end as a handle, roll the hot dog in the batter to thoroughly coat.

Step: 5

Roll the corn dog in the hot oil with the same continuous rolling motion, setting the batter; continue to roll the corn dog in the hot oil until deep golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Alternately, lay corn dog into hot oil after initial rolling to finish cooking the batter, about 1 minute per side. Drain corn dogs on paper towels to blot excess oil.
