Fletcher's corny dog is a State Fair of Texas institution: a beef frankfurter dipped in a thick sweet cornmeal batter and deep-fried, served on a stick with yellow mustard. It has been served at Fair Park every autumn since 1942.
Neil Fletcher introduced the corn dog at the 1942 State Fair of Texas, calling it the Corny Dog, and the Fletcher family has sold them from the same booth at Fair Park every autumn since. The recipe and booth location are unchanged since 1942. The corny dog became so associated with the Fair that the terms are interchangeable in Dallas.
