Findus used to do frozen ones but not seen any about for years, i love a good corn dog too. ive found lots of recipies online and have made my own , i use red dog brand hot dogs. http://allrecipes.com/recipe/35149/corn-dogs/
They're really easy to make if you have a deep fat fryer. The only gotcha is that all the recipes online are American and call for corn flour or cornmeal which you'll never find in the supermarket unless you know to look for polenta instead. I've made them with vegetarian hot dogs and they work really well.
My local morrisons at Kirkstall leeds does both fine and course cornmeal, not hard to find or expensive , i use a 50 50 mix of both. just look in the ethnic section of any large supermarket you should find it. i bought a 20 quid deep fat fryer at asda just to cook corndogs in, i use spry crisp n dry oil. as good as anything and works well. Will have to check the leeds costco, keep meaning to join, just because of the amount of bog roll her indoors uses , plus a mate brought home a few family pizzas and they were delicious.

Right i had a go at these at the weekend used the recipe from evilmunkey (thanks) and also got the fine and coarse cornmeal as evilmunkey suggested from morrisons less than 90p a bag and used Wikinger Bockwurst sausages, not a great selection of hotdog sausages in Morrisons.
Worked a treat wooden skewers a bit long but easily sorted.
made the batter leaving it in the fridge to cool for an hour.
decided to use the original jar to coat the sausages.
into medium hot vegetable oil.
4-5 minutes then drain on kitchen roll.
mustard and ketchup added.
Money shot tasted great - many thanks to all who helped.
Cheers Frank.
