Preparation

Step 1

To make the dipping sauces, mix together the ingredients for each sauce (in separate bowls) until well combined. Set aside.
To make the corn dogs, combine cornmeal, flour, salt, onion powder, sugar, cayenne, smoked paprika, and baking powder in a medium bowl. Whisk in the egg and milk.
Preheat the oil in a deep fryer to 350°F. Insert wooden skewers into the frankfurters. Roll the frankfurters in batter until well coated. Allow excess batter to drip off. Fry two or three corn dogs at a time until lightly browned, approximately 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Serve with dipping sauces.
