# Burger Corn Dog Hybrids The Mouth-Watering Horn Dog Combines Corn Dogs and Burgers on a Stick By Alyson Wyers | Published 2014-07-15 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burger-corn-dog References: [thatsnerdalicious](http://www.thatsnerdalicious.com/meat/this-burger-on-a-stick-is-food-porn-at-its-finest/) & [pornburger.me](http://pornburger.me/2014/07/09/the-horn-dog/) This burger corn dog hybrid is everything you could wish for on a stick. Created by Pornburger, the aptly named 'Horn Dog' is essentially a mix between a burger and a corn dog, but with a special twist. In addition to containing a seared [pickled beef hotdog](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/southern-bird-dogs) and a slice of slow-roasted crispy pork belly placed between two "smash-cooked" [beef burger patties](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/big-hac-sandwich), the whole thing is dipped in a jalapeño, whole kernel corn batter before it's fried. And then, as if this weren't almost more than we could handle, the meat on a stick is drizzled with clover honey. The burger corn dog takes two classic Americana food items and couples them to perfection. If you are looking for a drool-worthy, meaty treat, you won't find something much better than this. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.7/10 - Popularity: 4% | Activity: 8% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Hybrid Food Creations:** The trend of combining two classic food items to create unique and mouth-watering hybrids opens up opportunities for creative culinary innovations. - **Gourmet Junk Food:** The rise of gourmet versions of classic junk food items like the burger corn dog presents opportunities for restaurants and food entrepreneurs to elevate comfort foods. - **Creative Food Presentation:** Innovative food presentation, such as serving a burger corn dog on a stick, can provide a visually appealing and Instagrammable dining experience for customers. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Restaurant Industry:** Restaurants can take advantage of the hybrid food trend by offering unique and delectable creations like the burger corn dog to attract customers. - **Food Truck Industry:** Food trucks can tap into the popularity of gourmet junk food by offering their own versions of elevated comfort foods, such as burger corn dogs, to cater to foodies on the go. - **Event Catering Industry:** The demand for creative food presentation at events opens up opportunities for catering companies to offer unique and visually appealing dishes, like burger corn dogs, to impress guests. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Pizza-Flavored Corn Dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pepperoni-pizza-sausage.md) - [Ranch-Drizzled Corn Dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hotnranch-corn-dog.md) - [Hybrid Cheesesteak Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corn-dog-cheesesteak.md) - [Korean Cuisine Corndogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mopo-corn-dog.md) - [Pizza Crust Hot Dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pizza-dog.md) - [Burger-Inspired Hot Dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bacon-cheeseburger-sausage.md) - [Chicken Tender Hot Dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-bos-bird-dog.md) - [Cheesy Macaroni-Infused Sausages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/americana-sausage.md) - [Chicken Tender Hot Dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bird-dawgs.md)
