Sloppy Franks Recipes

RUDECHACK'S FRANKS AND NOODLES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente; drain.
• Spread cooked noodles in a 9x13 inch pan. Arrange hot dogs over noodles. In a medium bowl, mix together ketchup, water, oil, lemon juice, onion, Worcestershire sauce and brown sugar; pour over noodles and hot dogs.
• Bake in preheated oven for 35 minutes.

FRENCH FRY FRANKS

Steps:

• Make the franks: Whisk the flour, cornmeal, sugar and paprika in a large bowl. Add the egg and milk and whisk to make a thick batter, adding more milk if the mixture is too dry. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste.
• Heat about 2 inches vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375 degrees F. Dip the franks in the batter, then carefully wrap a long curly fry around each. (If desired, thread the franks on wooden skewers before wrapping with fries.)
• Working in batches, fry the franks in the hot oil, turning, until golden on all sides, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels; sprinkle with salt.
• Meanwhile, make the dip: Whisk the Sriracha, lime juice and mayonnaise in a bowl. Serve with the franks.

SKILLET FRANKS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute green pepper and onion in butter until tender. Add the hot dogs, tomatoes, tomato juice, salt, marjoram, garlic, basil and pepper. Bring to a boil; add the noodles. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10-12 minutes or until noodles are tender.

BOURBON FRANKS

Steps:

• Note: I use 4- 8 ounce packages of miniature cocktail frankfurters.
• When I cook the sauce thoroughly I put into a crock pot and then put the frankfurters in and heat.
• You then have everything ready to go if you are taking this item to someone else's party.
• In a large saucepan, combine ketchup, brown sugar and bourbon; stir until well blended.
• Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, about 1 hour.
• Add frankfurters and simmer until heated thoroughly, about 5 minutes.

SNAPPY FRANKS

Steps:

• Cut franks into 3/4 to 1 inch pieces. With a sharp knife, cut a crisscross slit into each end of the frank pieces.
• Place into a skillet and pour 2 cups of Kraft Original Barbecue Sauce on them.
• Simmer in skillet for about 10 minutes until barbecue sauce gets nice and bubbly. The franks are done when you see the slits open up each end of the franks. Serve with fancy toothpicks into the franks as an appetizer.

NIPPY FRANKS

• Stir wieners into sauce mixture.
