Equipment

  • 12 long wooden skewers

Ingredients
 
 

  • 6 hot dogs long
  • 1 pkg. Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
  • ½ cup flour
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup warm water
  • ½ tsp sweet paprika
  • tsp salt
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • oil for frying

Instructions
 

  • Before you start doing anything, put the oil in a deep saucepan or deep fryer to warm it nicely.
  • While the oil is warming up, you should use the time to cut the hot dogs in half and carefully insert wooden skewers into hot dogs to reach the end.
  • Once you do that, dry the hot dogs with a paper towel and sprinkle them with a little bit of flour.
  • While the hand mixer is the best solution to get the compact and sticky mixture, you can also try to combine them with a spoon. So, just add Jiffy cornbread mix, eggs, flour, warm water, and the seasonings, and mix all those ingredients together.
  • Pour the mixture into a tall glass and start dipping the hot dog skewers in it.
  • Once you've dipped a hot dog in the mixture, place it in the hot oil for 3 minutes.
  • Be sure to turn the hot dog every so often so that it's evenly fried on each side. Once a corn dog is golden-brown, it's done. Place them on paper towels to soak up the excess grease.

Notes

Note that I used hot dogs from the local butchery, so my links were long. This means that you may need more hot dogs if you use the classic store-bought ones.
