cornbread – Cooking With Shaz

BBQ Cornbread Waffle Sandwich

No buns? No bread? No Problem! Just whip up some waffles using cornbread batter and use the waffles as your buns.

Use your favorite BBQ beef or pork to top the cornbread waffles, top with additional BBQ sauce and French’s french fried onions.

Here’s the recipe I used for the cornbread waffles:

1 1/4 cup self rising flour
3/4 cup self rising cornmeal
2 tablespoons sugar
2 eggs
1 1/4 cup milk or half & half
1/4 cup cooking oil

Whisk together the above ingredients in a mixing bowl. Make waffles according to your waffle maker’s instructions.

Cornbread Waffle BBQ Sandwiches

2 cups flour
3/4 cup corn meal
1/2 cup sugar
1 3/4 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 3/4 cups fat-free milk
2 egg yolks, slightly beaten
10 turkey hot dogs
8-10 cups of vegetable oil
5 pairs of chopsticks

1. Preheat oil in a deep pan or fryer to 375 degrees.
2. Combine the flour, corn meal, sugar, salt and baking soda in a large bowl.
3. Combine the milk and egg yolks to the dry ingredients and mix with an electric mixer on high speed until batter is smooth.
4. Dry off the hot dogs with a paper towel. Jab the thin end of a single chopstick about halfway into the end of each hot dog.
5. When the oil is hot, tip the bowl of batter so that you can completely coat each hot dog. Roll the hot dog in the batter until it is entirely covered with batter.
6. Hold the hot dog up by the stick and let some of the batter drip off. Quickly submerge the hot dog in the oil and spin it slowly so that the coating cooks evenly. After about 20 seconds you can use a lid to the deep fryer or pan to put weight on the stick, keeping the hot dog fully immersed in the oil. You can cook a couple dogs at a time this way. Cook for 5-6 minutes or until coating is dark brown. Turn them once or twice as they cook. Drain on paper towels while cooling, and repeat with remaining hot dogs.

Makes 10 hot dogs.
