Classic Corn Dogs

Ingredients

• 8 Beef hot dogs
• 8 Wooden skewers
• Flour, for dredging
• 1 cup Yellow cornmeal
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 tbsp Baking powder
• 1 tsp Kosher salt
• 1/2 tsp Paprika
• 1/4 tsp Black pepper
• 1 large Egg
• 1 cup Buttermilk
• 2 tbsp Melted butter
• Vegetable oil for frying
• Dijon Honey Mustard Dressing (KE0651), for dipping
• Golden Barbecue & Wing Sauce (SJ5051HF), for dipping

Directions

1. Pat the hot dogs completely dry with paper towels. Insert a wooden skewer into each hot dog and lightly dust each hot dog with flour. This helps the batter stick.
2. Make the batter by combining in a bowl and whisking together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, paprika and pepper.
3. Then add the egg, buttermilk and melted butter and mix just until smooth. Do not overmix. Pour the batter into a tall drinking glass or mason jar for easier dipping.
4. Heat oil to 350°F. Dip each floured hot dog into the batter until completely coated and fry turning occasionally until deep golden brown.
5. Drain and serve 2–4 corn dogs in a paper-lined basket with one ramekin of Dijon Honey Mustard Dressing (KE0651) and one ramekin of Golden Barbecue & Wing Sauce (SJ5051HF).
