The Hamberdog

A combination hot dog/hamburger has been introduced in Australia. The creator appeared on Shark Tank but did not get an investment. The special bun is designed to cover both so it is a burger bun with two extensions on the side to cover the dog <O>. This must be viewed as the single greatest creation since penicillin.

The Hamdog

Australia man mates a hamburger and a hotdog, creates Hamdog fast food monstrosity

Wait 'til the anti-GMO activists hear about this genetic monstrosity. The horror.

Mark Murray of Perth plans to soon begin selling his patented cross between a hamburger and a hotdog, which he calls the “Hamdog.” He'll begin selling hamdogs in Australia.

From coverage in The Mercury, an Australian newspaper:

Mark Murray first pitched his idea on Channel 10’s Shark Tank program last year, after successfully securing a US patent for the “combination hamburger hot dog bread bun” in 2009.

“Everyone told me it wasn’t possible, because you’d need a patent lawyer and it would cost millions of dollars,” Mr Murray told news.com.au.

“Even [Boost Juice founder and Shark Tank judge] Janine Allis told me that it was impossible to patent. She’ll be eating her words now,” Mr Murray said.

Couldn't you just place the hotdog on top of the burger like in the following pictures instead of making a ridiculous bun?

I found this in the OP's article's comment section.

It's like the sandwich itself is trying to warn you not to eat it.

Bad reporting. It was the bun which was patented.
They link to the patent and then later quote showing it was the bun which was patented.

Sounds gross. Now a burger topped with brats, italian sausage or boudin, that I'll go for.
