Australian Mark Murray conceived one kind of hamdog in 2004. His version contains a
beef patty cut in two, with a frankfurter placed in between the two patties, then topped off with cheese, pickles, sauces, tomato, lettuce and onion. He received a US design patent for the specially shaped bun in 2009.[2]

Another variety of hamdog was invented in February 2005 by Chandler Goff, the owner of a bar in
hoagie bun which is deep-fried and served with a fried egg on top and a side of French fries.[3] He started selling it at the Indiana State Fair in 2006.[4] A hamdog eating contest was established in Vadnais Heights, Minnesota, in 2007 by Jimmy's Food and Drink. There is no reward for the winner other than bragging rights.[5]
Dr. Nicholas Lang, professor of surgery at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, advised against consuming a hamdog, even as a one-time snack.[6]
