Little Rock, AR -- Hot dogs typically run a few bucks. But an Arkansas vendor sold the ballpark favorite for more than $1500.

It could be the world's most expensive hot dog. It was made with a quarter-pound of premium beef and topped with lobster tail, saffron aioli and gold flakes.

The vendor managed to sell four hot dogs, for a $6,000 profit. The money went to a non-profit that supports the homeless.

The vendor says the pricey dog breaks the world record for the most expensive hot dog.
