hamburger (also called a beef burger, hamburger


sandwich, burger,hamburg or cheeseburger when served with a slice of cheese) is
a sandwichconsisting of one or more cooked patties of ground meat, usually beef, placed inside a
sliced bread roll or bun. Hamburgers may be cooked in a variety of ways, including pan-frying,
barbecuing, and flame-broiling. Hamburgers are often served
with cheese, lettuce, tomato, bacon, onion, pickles, andcondiments such
as mustard, mayonnaise, ketchup, relish, and chiles.[1]

The term "burger" can also be applied to the meat patty on its own, especially in the UK where the
term "patty" is rarely used. The term may be prefixed with the type of meat or meat substitute used,
as in "turkey burger", "bison burger", or "veggie burger".

Hamburgers are sold at fast-food restaurants, diners, and specialty and high-end restaurants (where


burgers may sell for several times the cost of a fast-food burger). There are many international and
regional variations of the hamburger.

History
Main articles: History of the hamburger and History of the hamburger in the United States

There have been many claims about the origin of the hamburger. There is a reference to a
"Hamburg steak" as early as 1884 in the Boston Journal.[OED, under "steak"] On July 5, 1896, the Chicago
Daily Tribune made a highly specific claim regarding a "hamburger sandwich" in an article about a
"Sandwich Car": "A distinguished favorite, only five cents, is Hamburger steak sandwich, the meat
for which is kept ready in small patties and 'cooked while you wait' on the gasoline
range."[4] According to Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro, the hamburger, a ground meat patty
between two slices of bread, was first created in America in 1900 by Louis Lassen,
a Danish immigrant, owner of Louis' Lunch in New Haven, Connecticut.[5] There have been rival
claims by Charlie Nagreen, Frank and Charles Menches, Oscar Weber Bilby, and Fletcher David.[6]
[7]
 White Castle traces the origin of the hamburger to Hamburg, Germany with its invention by Otto
Kuase.[8] However, it gained national recognition at the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair when the New
York Tribune referred to the hamburger as "the innovation of a food vendor on the pike".[7] No
conclusive argument has ever ended the dispute over invention. An article from ABC News sums up:
"One problem is that there is little written history. Another issue is that the spread of the burger
happened largely at the World's Fair, from tiny vendors that came and went in an instant. And it is
entirely possible that more than one person came up with the idea at the same time in different parts
of the country."
Ground beef, beef mince, minced beef, minced meat, or hamburger (in the United States) is a ground
meat made ofbeef that has been finely chopped with a large knife or a meat grinder. It is used in many
recipes including hamburgers andcottage pie. In some parts of the world, meat grinders are called
mincers.

In many countries, food laws define specific categories of ground beef and what they can contain. For
example, in the United States, beef fat may be added to hamburger but not to ground beef if the meat is
ground and packaged at a USDA-inspected plant. In the U.S., a maximum of 30% fat by weight is allowed
in either hamburger or ground beef. The allowable amount in France is 5 to 20% (15% being used by
most food chains). In Germany, regular ground beef may contain up to 15% fat while the special "Tatar"
for steak tartare may contain less than 5% fat. Both hamburger and ground beef can have added
seasoning, phosphate, extenders, or binders added; but no additional water is permitted. Ground beef is
often marketed in a range of different fat contents to match the preferences of customers.

Ground beef is generally made from the less tender and less popular cuts of beef. Trimmings from
tender cuts may also be used.[1]

A patty, in American, Canadian, South African, Australian, Argentinianand New Zealand English, is a


flattened, usually round, serving ofground meat or meat alternatives. The meat is compacted and
shaped,cooked, and served. Patties can be eaten with a knife and a fork in dishes like Salisbury steak,
but are typically served in a sort ofsandwich called a "burger", or a hamburger if the patty is made
fromground beef. The patty itself can also be called a burger, whether or not it is served in a sandwich,
especially in the United Kingdom andIreland, where the term "patty" is rarely used.

Similar-shaped meat cakes not made from ground beef may also be called "burger": "turkey burgers" or
"fishburgers" may be made from reshaped mechanically separated meat. Sometimes burgers
are breaded. Veggie burger patties are made without animal products, usually made of soy.[1]

In Ireland, traditional chippers often serve batter burger (a beef-based patty dipped in batter and deep


fried) or spice burger (a savory patty made with a proprietary recipe of meats and spices).[2] These are
served in a greaseproof paper bag and eaten with the hands.

In India, a patty may refer to either a vegetarian (potato for example) or non-vegetarian (chicken, meat
etc.) burger filling, or to a sweet or savory puff pastry turnover which is a common street food in many
parts of the country.
A veggie burger is a hamburger-style, or chicken-style, patty that does not contain meat, but may
contain animal products such as egg or milk.[1] The patty of a veggie burger may be made from
vegetables (like corn), textured vegetable protein (like soy), legumes (beans), tofu, nuts, mushrooms, or
grains or seeds, like wheat and flax.

History[edit]

The patties that are the essence of a veggie burger have existed in various Eurasian cuisines for
millennia, including in the form of disc-shaped grilled or fried meatballs or as koftas, a commonplace
item in Indian cuisine. These may contain meats or be made of entirely vegetarian ingredients such as
legumes or other plant-derived proteins. While it is not possible, or even necessary, to identify the
'inventor' of the veggie burger, there have been numerous claimants.

The veggie burger, by name, may have been created in London in 1982 by Gregory Sams, who called it
the 'VegeBurger'. Gregory and his brother Craig had run a natural food restaurant in Paddington since
the 1960s;[2] a Carrefour hypermarketin Southampton sold 2000 packets in three weeks after its launch.
[3]

Using the name Gardenburger, an early veggie burger was developed by Paul Wenner around 1980 or
1981 in Wenner's vegetarian restaurant, The Gardenhouse, in Gresham, Oregon.[4]
