Oh!  It's a sausage on a stick right?  It's covered with a thick cornmeal batter, and then deep fried as far as I know.
What fair do you go to? I love a corn dog deep fried with a thick layer of batter.
Whenever I go to the fair, I have to get a corndog
A corn dog (also spelled corndog) is a sausage (usually a hot dog) on a stick that has been coated in a thick layer of cornmeal batter and deep fried.
