Tips:

Choose fresh, sweet corn for the best flavor.
If you don't have fresh corn, you can use frozen or canned corn. Just be sure to drain the canned corn well.
Use a food processor to quickly and easily grind the corn.
Be sure to mix the cornmeal mixture until it is just combined. Overmixing will make the corn pups tough.
Heat the oil to 375 degrees Fahrenheit before frying the corn pups. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking together.
Fry the corn pups in small batches so that they don't overcrowd the pan.
Cook the corn pups until they are golden brown and crispy.
Serve the corn pups hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Corn pups are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or side dish. With just a few simple ingredients, you can have a batch of corn pups ready to enjoy in no time. So next time you're looking for something tasty to eat, give corn pups a try!
