CORN DOGS

Steps:

• Oil grill pan, then grill hot dogs over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until lightly charred on all sides, about 5 minutes total. Transfer to a plate and cool slightly, then insert a wooden stick into each hot dog. Put 3 tablespoons flour on another plate and roll hot dogs in flour to coat, shaking off excess.
• Heat 3 inches oil to 350°F in a deep 3-quart heavy pot over medium-high heat.
• Meanwhile, whisk together cornmeal, remaining 1/2 cup flour, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, baking powder, sugar, baking soda, cayenne, and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Add eggs 1 at a time, whisking well after each addition. Whisk in buttermilk.
• Transfer some of batter to a tall glass, filling it almost to the top.
• Working in batches of 2 or 3, dip hot dogs, 1 at a time, into glass of batter to coat (add more batter to glass if necessary), then fry, turning occasionally, until batter is cooked through and golden-brown all over, about 3 minutes. Transfer corn dogs to paper towels to drain. Return oil to 350°F and refill glass with batter between batches.

• Meanwhile, combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, poppy seeds, baking powder, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Whisk in the egg, buttermilk and hot sauce, if using. Place a 5-inch skewer halfway through the center of each cocktail frank. Dip the franks in the batter to coat, then place into the oil to fry until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon or tongs to the wire rack. Repeat with the remaining franks and batter, being sure to return the oil to temperature between each batch.
• Stand a frank up, and onto the skewer thread a tomato, pearl onion, sport pepper and cornichon. Sprinkle with the celery salt. Serve with the relish and mustard. Repeat with the remaining skewers.

• When ready to grill, place corn dogs on gas grill over medium-low heat or on charcoal grill 4 to 6 inches from medium-low coals. Cook 4 to 6 minutes or until golden brown and no longer doughy, turning corn dogs several times.
