Name: Fried Pickle Dogs
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 4 kosher dill pickles; 1/4 cup all-purpose flour; 2 eggs, beaten; 3 tablespoons spicy brown mustard, divided, or to taste; 1/2 cup cornmeal; salt and ground black pepper to taste; 3 tablespoons canola oil; 4 hot dogs; 4 strips bacon; toothpicks (optional); 4 hot dog buns, split and toasted

Servings: persons

1
Slice dill pickles lengthwise into strips. Place flour in a dish. Combine eggs and 1 tablespoon mustard in a second dish. Combine cornmeal, salt, and pepper in a third dish.
2
Heat canola oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Dip a pickle slice in the flour, egg, and cornmeal mixtures. Place in the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn and cook the other side until golden, about 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove from skillet and place on paper towels to drain. Repeat with remaining pickle slices. Pour off most of the oil; reserve the rest in the pan for frying hot dogs.
3
Fill a saucepan with water and bring to a boil. Place hot dogs in boiling water, remove from heat, and let stand for 5 minutes. Remove hot dogs from water and let cool slightly. Wrap each hot dog with a strip of bacon, securing with a toothpick if desired.
4
Heat skillet with reserved oil over medium heat. Fry bacon-wrapped hot dogs until bacon is crispy, turning occasionally, 5 to 7 minutes.
5
Spread remaining mustard on a toasted bun and top with a bacon-wrapped hot dog. Tuck in slices of fried pickle. Repeat with remaining mustard, buns, hot dogs, and pickles.
