Supplies
- Deep fryer or large, heavy-bottomed pot
- Tongs
- Paper towels
- Toothpicks
- Thermometer (for monitoring oil temperature)
- Skewers (optional, for serving)
Ingredients
- 8 hot dogs
- 8 slices of bacon
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- Vegetable oil (for frying)
- Hot dog buns (optional)
- Condiments (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- Preheat your deep fryer or heavy-bottomed pot filled with vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
- Wrap each hot dog with a slice of bacon, securing the ends with toothpicks to keep the bacon in place.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt.
- Pour the buttermilk into a shallow dish.
- Dip each bacon-wrapped hot dog first into the buttermilk, then into the flour mixture, ensuring it is evenly coated. Shake off any excess flour.
- Carefully place the coated hot dogs into the preheated oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 4-6 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the coating is golden brown.
- Use tongs to remove the hot dogs from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Remove toothpicks.
- Serve the deep fried bacon wrapped hot dogs in buns with your favorite condiments, or on skewers for a fun twist.
