Ingredients
- 1/2 cup corn meal
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/4 cup corn starch
- 8 cooked sausage links, cut in half (makes 16 pieces)
- 1 container cooking oil (I used 1.5 qts of vegetable oil)
- Syrup
- 2-3 shish kabob skewers
Preparation
Step 1
Combine dry ingredients (minus corn starch), and whisk in your buttermilk. Mix well.
Heat up your oil in a deep pan (you want a good 3-4 inches of oil, so I used a deeper, smaller-diameter pot)
If your sausage links are dry, wet them a little with water. Dredge them in the corn starch and remove excess.
Stab 2-3 sausageletts with your skewers (as many as you can hold in the hot oil at one time - I did 2). Then, dip them in the batter, fully coating each one.
Quickly submerge each pancake-battered-dog in the hot oil for about 1-2 minutes or until golden brown. Repeat until each piglet-in-a-blanket is cooked. Eat with syrup (that's NOT optional...). That's it!
