  • Nathan's Famous started as a nickel hot-dog stand on Coney Island, New York, in 1916. Today, the restaurant has grown into an iconic global brand with its internationally recognized annual hot-dog-eating contest. Insider’s Jake Gabbard visited the Coney Island location to learn how the first-ever hot-dog-eating contest lured crowds to Nathan’s.
    In this video, Nathan’s Famous told Insider that the hot dog eating contest was founded in 1916. However, the first recorded contest wasn’t until 1972. For more the annual hot dog eating contest, listen to Business Insider’s podcast: bit.ly/MakingNathansFamous

    Coney Island to me was a Nathan's hot dog, a paper cup full of crinkly fries, an ear of corn slaked with melted butter, and a drink. Growing up in NYC there were lots of great hot dog vendors: Nedick's operated along the subways and at the entrance to the old Madison Square Garden. Sabrate's were sold from street carts and were everywhere. A decade later, when I worked in Atlantic City directly opposite Steeplechase Pier, there was a Nathans. Almost every day for lunch I had a dog, fries, corn, and a drink. 60 years later I keep Nathan's dogs in my freezer. Nathan's are reliably tasty!

    Makes me mad that the markets don’t sell the Nathan’s with natural casing at least in small quantities. If you can find a place like Costco back in the day which my grandma always had in her freezer was the restaurant style all beef hot dogs from Framer John. It was Farmer John’s restaurant style hotdog with all natural casing & pure all angus beef & I swear I always asked my grandma for a hotdog as a kid knowing she had those. Nobody else I knew would have those hotdogs but my grandma cause she had the extra large freezer in the garage & the box contained like 100+ dogs so you needed the room plus like Mexican grandma’s that was where all the family went to when hungry so they went.
    The best was when she boiled them in beer until the beer reduced down to this rich sticky beer glaze then all you need was a good bun & mustard. Yum.
