Hamdog
A hamdog is an American dish that consists of a hotdog which is wrapped in a beef patty and then deep-fried.
Preparation and variations
Mulligan's, a suburban bar in Decatur, Georgia, serves the hamdog in addition to the Luther Burger, a bacon cheeseburger with Krispy Kreme donuts as its bun. Their version of the hamdog consists of the usual hotdog and beef patty, but is topped with chili, cheese, onions, a fried egg, and two fistfulls of French fries, all served on a hoagie roll. These two dishes were among the attractions of the bar.[1]
Health concerns
The owner of Mulligans, Chandler Goff, told the Associated Press that his restaurant served more healthy alternatives, like salads and sandwiches that were not deep-fried. Dr. Nicholas Lang, professor of surgery at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, advised against ever consuming a hamdog at any point in one's lifetime. "If you choke that down, you might as well find a heart surgeon because you are going to need one," he added.[1]
