Classic Hot Dog Kit

The Varsity’s famous hot dogs are 100% beef, and the chili recipe hasn’t changed since 1928! This kit includes everything you need to make 16 of their famous hot dogs with mustard, ketchup and onions!

Back in 1928, Frank Gordy opened a small hot dog stand in Atlanta, serving up all-beef hot dogs topped with savory chili. Nearly a century later, The Varsity is an Atlanta landmark and all-American icon, still family-owned, and as famous for its chili dogs (as made according to Frank’s original recipes), onion rings, burgers, and fried pies as for the lingo of its employees, who famously ask “What’ll ya have?” to every customer. There’s no other place quite like The Varsity, and for the first time, it’s shipping nationwide!
