I love corn dogs and I would imagine that many of you like them as well. In fact thousands of people have been liking them since they debuted at the Texas State Fair in the 1930's. The only trouble is that they are so expensive. Then while I was in Mexico one of my companions taught me how to make them from scratch.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Bisquick
  • Milk
  • eggs
  • water
  • oil
  • Sticks
  1. Step 1
    Do not use frozen hot dogs

    Mix up some bisquick like you were making pancakes. Make sure there are no lumps and use an egg if the mix calls for it.

  3. Step 3
    Pot with oil

    Fill a pot about half way with oil so that it will not boil over the rim. Make sure you have enough oil so that the hot dog can be completely submerged in it.

  4. Step 4

    Take your hot dogs and put them on a stick. Popsicle or scewer sticks work great.

  5. Step 5

    Let the oil come to a boil on the stove. Dip your hot dog in the batter. Let the excess run off and then submerge it in the oil. Turn it around until the batter fluffs and turns a nice golden brown. Then remove it.

  6. Step 6

    Place it on a plate with a paper towel and then continue the process until you have cooked all the dogs.

Tips & Warnings
  • Drain the juice from the hot dogs or it could affect the batter.
  • Do not let the batter get too runny.
  • Be careful with kids. They need careful instruction and supervision to help.
