She is ranked 44th by Major League Eating and that inspires Kathryn Tesch to compete in the biggest hot dog eating contest of the year.
The Dorchester, Wisconsin native has twice competed in Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July contest. Her best performance was eating ten-and-a-half hot dogs to finish in tenth place in 2019. Tesch will try for a personal-best once again at this year’s contest at Coney Island.
