Bud's Corn Dog Recipe
Source: Bud Cloyd
Servings: 10

1 cup flour
1 1/2 cups corn meal
1 tsp baking powder
2 1/4 cups milk
1/2 tbsp sugar
dash of salt
2 tbsp Louisiana hot sauce
1 pkg hot dogs (or for a real heart-stopper, polish sausage)

Combine all ingredients to form a batter. If too thick add a little more milk. Dip hot dogs in batter and drop them into hot oil. Fry to golden brown.

This was based on a recipe in our family cookbook with this append to it:

These are like the corn dogs sold at county fairs. The "Cozy Dog" drive in is a landmark in Springfield, Illinois. They specialize in these, and it is sometimes rumored that Uncle Bob (my late uncle, Robert Bumgarner) knew the owner and got his recipe.

I added the hot sauce and readjusted some quantities.

Serve with mustard.

This is guaranteed to get your grease and cholesterol levels right up there!
