Made these last night using some of the tips from other reviewers. They came out great! I did coat the hot dogs in corn starch first, and I added a couple tablespoons of sugar to the batter. I did use fat-free milk because that was all I had, but it still came out fine. I might have used just a little too much and made the batter a little thin, but they still came out fine.

What ya'll need to do is first off, soak the sticks for 10 minutes before putting the hot dogs on em, then your gonna roll your hot dogs in cornstarch, about 1/4 cup, mean while heat up for deep fryer, take1 1/2 cups of self rising cornmeal,1/2 cup flour, 3TBS sugar, 1 1/4 buttermilk, or 1% milk, add all together, roll your dogs in this then deep fry till golden brown, 2-3 minutes.

For anyone who is having trouble making the batter stick, here is a trick: pour the batter into a very tall glass, completely dry the franks and roll them in cornstarch. Then just put in the sticks and dip into the glass to coat, using a rolling motion as you dip them. Have the oil heated to temp and just fry away. My mom made these often in just this way. Hope this tip helps.

I had trouble with getting the batter to stick. I dusted the hot dogs with flour but that didn't help. I won't try these again. Not worth the effort and mess.lbat

I really didn't enjoy these. They were a pain to make the batter stick to the dogs and not my fingers. I did dust them with flour before battering and they still just weren't great. The batter had no flaver at all. I feel like the batter should have had a little salt and sugar in it. It had no flavor at all. My husband thought they were ok and gave it a C-. We both thought they were extremely dry.

I think this is a great corn dog recipe. I usually use a spoon to help with the batter, but have never really had any problems with these.

I've been told to dip the dogs in flour first, then into the batter, the flour helps the batter to stick......I actually have a different recipe for corn dogs, it's really thick too, but the batter sticks really well! If the hot dogs are too moist, pat them dry with a paper towel, then dip into the batter. I also use a spoon or my fingers to spread the batter over the dog.
