Hot Dogs on a Stick

Slowly heat oil at least one-inch deep to 375°.

In small saucepan, gently heat barbecue sauce.

Combine pancake mix, cornmeal, sugar and 2/3 cup water.

Beat with rotary beater just until smooth.

Let batter stand for about 10 minutes to thicken. Dip frank into batter to coat all over lightly.

In hot oil, fry franks a few at a time for two to three minutes, or until crisp and golden brown.

Lift out with a slotted spoon and drain well on paper towels.

Insert wooden skewer into one end of each frank. Serve at once with barbecue sauce for dipping.
