Best Answer

The United States is credited for the first actual hamburger on a bun. It was first made in Tulsa in 1891. However, the Library of Congress recognizes the sales by Louis Lassen (1900) as the first.

The term "hamburger" for a chopped-meat dish comes from Hamburg in Germany, where a 'hamburg steak' (late 1880s) was originally minced smoked beef. The similar dish 'Salisbury steak' is named for a US physician, Dr. J.H. Salisbury.
