Fletcher's Corny Dog Vs. State Fair Frozen Corny Dogs

It is State Fair of Texas time around these parts. 3  of our grands were out of school last Monday for Fair Day. The wifey guilted me into taking CBoss, Cool Hand, and Lil Darlin to the fair. As far as I am concerned the fair has only one attraction for me. FLETCHER'S CORNY DOGS.  So this year, I spent $15.00 to park, $28.00 to get into the park (2 geezer tickets) and $36.00 at Fletcher's to get my one Fletcher's Corny Dog and a drink. I also spent another $35.00 at the pizza stand for the non-conformists of the group. In the State of Texas Fletcher's is the real deal. At the Fletcher's stand, there were 8 or 9 lines about 50 yards long each just to get their annual fix of a Corny Dog. These things are so popular they should be illegal. 

The crust is very tasty. It is so good, you don't even pay attention to the condition of the dog in the middle. This here is some sweet luvin'.

Over the last few months, the wifey has gone full social on me. She is into arranging Block Parties for the neighbors on our street. This is a big deal. To have one, you have to have a signature from every resident on the block. Many of our neighbors just don't answer their door. This makes it pretty tough to get their signature. But the crazy lady from the corner will bug them till  they answer the door and sign the form. For our fall block party we decided that the State Fair would be our theme. Like we needed a theme to gather up and eat way too much food. On the menu was State Fair Corny Dogs, Cotton Candy, Popcorn, Triple Chocolate Cake, several kinds of cookies, more chips than Willie Nelson could eat after a concert.

We arranged to have a cotton candy machine and a neighbor bought the ingredients and supplies to make 25 or 30 bags of cotton candy. Note, this makes a huge mess in the kitchen!!!!!!!! I didn't eat any of the CC but they were all grabbed up and some of the kiddos ate multiple bags. Parents you are welcome for the over active kiddos for the next few hours.

The popcorn was just bigtime grocery store popcorn that we bagged into smaller bags. Yes, this is a legal activity as long as it is popcorn!!!!

One of the neighby's baked a Triple Chocolate Cake. Man oh man. One round of chocolate makes for some mighty good cake. Double Chocolate will almost electrocute you it is so sweet. Triple Chocolate is almost heaven. Man one piece of cake and my diet for the whole week is blown. But man that was some cake.

There also were several versions of homemade cookies that were really great.

We had bought a Sams box of chips, which is a bunch of chips. Lays at their finest.

I decided to deep fry the State Fair Corny Dogs. I drug out the ole deep fryer,filled er up with oil, fired it up and deep fried over 60 dogs. Like Fletchies Dogs, the State Fair Doggies were very tasty. The crust makes the day. Once again, it is so good you forget the fact that you would never buy the weiner.

After consulting with my neighbor associates, we have concluded that State Fair Corny Dogs are JUST AS GOOD AS Fletchies Doggies. YIPPER you heard me correctly. Our conclusion is that it is all in the deep frying. So the next time you have a hankering for a Corny Dog in the fall, you can either decide to pay $114.00 for one Fletchies or you can go to Sam's and buy 34 State Fair doggies for $10.66 and about $4.00 for oil. or .43 per doggies.

The next time you go crazy for a Fletchies, think back to Mitcho's very valuable advice and just slither over to Sams and buy a box of State Fair doggies. Grab up some oil, Throw a party for the 10 best buds you have. Get silly on corny dogs with your best buds for about $14.00 instead of $114.00 with a couple of friends. Remember it is all about the deep frying. For the $100.00 you save on the first craving, with that $100.00 you can buy a good deep fryer and have a weeks running money left over.
