Step 1
Pat hot dogs dry with paper towels. Insert wooden skewers into the flat end of each.
Step 2
Mix cornmeal, flour, and 0.5 teaspoon salt in a shallow bowl. Beat eggs in another bowl.
Step 3
Heat oil in a heavy pot or deep skillet to 350°F, or until a wooden spoon handle bubbles vigorously.
Step 4
Dip each hot dog into egg, then roll in cornmeal mixture, pressing gently so coating adheres.
Step 5
Carefully lower 3–4 corn dogs into oil. Fry 90 seconds, turning occasionally, until golden.
Step 6
Transfer to paper towels. Repeat with remaining corn dogs. Serve immediately with mustard or ketchup.
