A man has successfully patented a 'Hamdog' - a combination of a hamburger and a hotdog all in the one bun - and the fast food is set to go on sale for $8.

Mark Murray took his culinary revolution onto reality television show Shark Tank last year, asking panel members $1 for a 25 per cent share of all rights and revenue the burger generates.

The Perth-based entrepreneur was told the fast food idea was impossible to patent because he would need to invest millions of dollars to get the business off the ground with a 'patent lawyer'.
