Just FYI, Gixen is a free online snipe program (it does try to sell you the paid version, but just ignore ads). It can snipe an auction while you are doing other things.

I called & spoke with the Son of the original owner of Rome Industries yesterday and he said he got the email showing the original 'patent' and that it had expired. He had spoken with his Dad about it and they agreed that it was not Rome that made the original, but another company.

I asked if he knew anyone that might have NOS (New Old Stock) but he did not, therefore, looks like a used one is all that will ever be available.....unless--------

He went on to tell me that if enough demand were there, they would start production on it but would be about a year before hitting the open market.....I can't wait (lol)

Anyhow, just an update on the elusive waffle dog maker.....keep on bidding !!! (lol) 8)

Back to the D.I.Y. method

A 4" grinder with a cut off wheel would make the notch for the stick.
A deburring tool or small rotary file could refine the stick hole a bit.

now the corn stick pan could look more like this.....

Pour in your batter and cook for a few seconds to support the dogs weight place dogs then fill cavity and put identical pan on top.

A hinge on one side and a pair of handles on the other and you have a pie iron of sorts.

Hell a couple of pairs of vice grip pliers and some heavy gloves and I am game.

Think I am gonna nose around for a pair of litter mate corn stick pans.

Corn dog baker.
“‘Krusty Korn Dog’ baker, also sandwich roaster (grill) or steak fryer. A big money maker! For use on gas, gasoline, oil or coal stoves. ‘Krusty Korn Dogs’ are novel and delicious. The hot dog is baked inside the corn batter, which as it bakes, moulds itself to resemble an ear of corn 6 3/8"L and 1 1/2â€

I lost this receipe once and had a hard time relocating it.
I am gonna tuck it here for myself and anyone else who
cares to try it.

I am in hopes it will bake as well as it should deep fry !

Honey Batter Corny Dogs
•1 cup all-purpose flour
•2/3 cup cornmeal
•1/4 cup sugar
•1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
•1 teaspoon salt
•2 tablespoons oil
•1-1/2 tablespoons honey
•1 egg, beaten
•1-1/4 cups buttermilk
•1/2 teaspoons baking soda
•2 pounds hotdogs (approximately 16 hotdogs)
•16 wooden popsicle or corn dog sticks
•1 quart cooking oil
•Extra flour for dusting
Using a large bowl, stir together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt. Next, stir in the oil, beaten egg, buttermilk, honey and baking soda. Mix well, until smooth and set aside.
To ensure that the batter will stick, pat hotdogs dry with paper towels, and dust lightly with flour, coating the whole dog. Place wooden sticks into the flour-coated hotdogs and set aside.

Heat 1 quart cooking oil in a large pot or deep fryer until it reaches 375°F. Hold the floured hotdogs by the stick and dip into the batter, twirling until completely coated. If necessary, spoon some of the batter over the hotdog. Hold the batter-covered hotdog over the bowl and allow the excess batter to drip off. Quickly drop the hotdog into the hot oil and fry. Fry only a few hot dogs at a time, until golden brown. Remove them from the oil using tongs, and place on paper towels to drain excess oil. Continue until all of the corn dogs are cooked.

Serve with French Fries and Spicy Mustard Dipping Sauce (recipe below). Makes approximately 16 corny dogs.

Spicy Mustard Dipping Sauce

•1-1/2 cups yellow mustard
•1-1/2 cups mayonnaise
•3 garlic cloves, minced
•8 teaspoons prepared horseradish
Combine all ingredients and mix well. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve. Makes approximately 3-1/4 cups

Sorry . . . .that nasty yellow mustard only should be used to flavor/color potato/macaroni salads. Never . . . .ever . . . .use it on meat . . . .even if it's a really nasty substitute for meat. . .such as hot dogs

That's the whole reason for the garlic and horseradish, it kills the taste of that nasty yellow mustard. :laughter:

However. ol' 18 (star) is sure driving up the bid. I prefer to wait and snipe my e bay finds at the last minute that way they never know what hit 'em.

I think Bob has a great idea here! It's certainly doable with a little creativity. You could do it with only 1 pan, just take out the center cavity and it would be a 3 dog cooker, figure a way to hinge it and something to center it, like pins all when closed and you're in bidness. The one thing that you wouldn't have is the little lip/resevoir around the edge to catch the run off. If you over filled it, it would push up the top as it cooked....and overfilling can be a problem...it takes a while to figure out just how much batter it takes. Corn batter does rise more than a typical waffle. A longer handle could be created using the tabs. I'm gonna keep my eyes peeled for one of those pans at the thrift store to cut up. Doug
