Heat 3-4 inches of vegetable oil in a large pot to 350 degrees.
In medium bowl combine cornmeal, flour, salt, and baking powder.
In separate bowl whisk together honey, egg, and buttermilk. Combine with cornmeal mixture to make a thick batter.
Insert popsicle sticks into hot dogs, making sure to leave a bit of the stick showing as a handle to hold. Pat each hot dog dry with a paper towel.
Holding onto the end of the stick, dip each hot dog into the batter making sure to cover the hot dog entirely. Drop immediately into oil and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
