* Charlie Nagreen 1885, Seymour, Wisconsin. According to one claim, Charlie Nagreen served the world's first hamburger at the Seymour Fair (Outagamie County Fair) of 1885. "Hamburger" Charlie decided to flatten a meatball and place it between slices of bread to increase portability. * Menches brothers 1885, Hamburg, New York. Western New York history records that Frank and Charles Menches ran out of pork for their sausage patty sandwiches at the 1885 Erie County Fair. Their supplier, reluctant to butcher more hogs in the summer heat, suggested they use beef instead. The brothers fried some but found it bland. They added coffee, brown sugar, and other ingredients to create a distinct taste without condiments. They named their creation the "Hamburg Sandwich" after Hamburg, New York where the fair has been held since 1868; the name was probably later condensed by common use to "hamburger", which may explain why a beef sandwich - which never contained any pork - bears this name. The original recipe is featured at Menches Brothers Restaurants in Akron, Ohio. * Fletcher Davis late 1880s, Athens, Texas. In 1974, The New York Times published a story about Louis' Lunch claiming to have invented the hamburger. According to the McDonald's hamburger chain, the inventor was an unknown food vendor at the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair. Newspaper columnist, Texas historian, and restaurateur Frank X. Tolbert said that this food vendor was Fletcher Davis, who operated a café at 115 Tyler Street in Athens, Texas, in the late 1880s. Local lore holds that Davis was selling an unnamed sandwich of ground beef at his lunch counter. During the 1980s Dairy Queen produced a television advertisement, filmed in Athens, calling the town the birthplace of the hamburger. * Louis' Lunch 1900, New Haven, Connecticut. Louis' Lunch has been selling steak and hamburger since 1895 when Louis Lassen opened his lunch wagon [2]. This small establishment, which advertises itself as the oldest hamburger restaurant in the U.S., is credited by some with having invented the classic American hamburger when Louis sandwiched a pattie between two pieces of white toast for a busy office worker in 1900 [3]. Louis' Lunch flame broils the hamburgers in the original 1898 Bridge & Beach vertical cast iron gas stoves using locally patented steel wire gridirons to hold the hamburgers in place during cooking. The U.S. Library of Congress American Folklife Center Local Legacies Project website credits Louis' Lunch as the maker of America's first hamburger and steak sandwich The hamburger is still served today on two pieces of toast and not a bun. [4]. * Dyer's Burgers, 1912, Memphis, Tennessee, deep-fried burgers using a cast-iron skillet. * White Castle, 1921, Wichita, Kansas. Due to widely prevalent anti-German sentiment in the U.S. during World War I, an alternative name for hamburgers was salisbury steak. Following the war, hamburgers became unpopular until the White Castle restaurant chain marketed and sold large numbers of small 2 and a half inch square hamburgers. They started to punch 5 holes in each patty which help them cook evenly and eliminates the need to flip the burger. The burger first sold for 5 cents. White Castle holds a U.S trademark on the word "slyders." The White Castle building was modeled after the water tower building in Chicago with the turrets and fortress like walls. White Castle was the first to sell their hamburgers in grocery stores and vending machines. They also created the industial strengh spatula and first to mass produce the paper hat. Today there are more than 400 restaurant's around the country. They sell over 550 million hamburgers per year. What you crave has become the White Castle slogan. * Ted's Restaurant, 1959; Meriden, Connecticut. Ted's Restaurant uses steam to cook their cheeseburgers.

Hamburgers actually originated in Russia. Warring tribes searched for meat and all they could find was low-quality Asian beef. They also found that by shredding the meat they could digest the burger better (as the burger was eaten raw). This is known today as tartar (or tartare) steak. Later burgers were sent to Germany, where the Germans began to cook the meat and add spices to create the Hamburg steak, the burger we know today.

Thats all false, the Burger was created in Germany as a Royal treat, much like Ice Cream in the UK.

This is the source of great debate, and a number of people are credited with possibly being the first to serve a hamburger. These are listed below:

  • 1880 Fletcher Davis - competing stories credit Fletcher "Old Dave" Davis of Athens, Texas as the father of the hamburger. He is said to have served burger Sandwiches at his lunch counter on bread with mustard and onion.
  • 1885 Charlie Nagreen - sold meatball sandwiches at the 1885 Seymour Fair in Seymour, Wisconsin. Charlie is also credited with naming the sandwich the "hamburger" for the Hamburger steak local German immigrants prepared.
  • 1885 Frank and Charles Menches (or 1892) - The Menches brothers are said to have sold chopped beef sandwiches at the Erie County Fair in Hamburg, New York in 1885. There seems to be some debate here as well, because other stories attribute the first burger to Frank alone, who is said to have sold burgers at the Summit County Fair in Akron, Ohio in 1892.
  • 1891 Otto Kuase - credit is given to Otto by White Castle. Otto fried ground beef patties in butter and served the sandwich with a fried egg on top.
  • 1891 Oscar Weber Bilby - on 4 July 1891 Oscar is said to have served grilled ground beef patties on yeast buns at an Independence Day picnic in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
  • 1900 Louis Lassen "Louis' Lunch" - at a restaurant in New Haven, Connecticut, burgers have been served since 1900 when the owner gathered scraps from the steak sandwiches he served, and broiled then in the vertical gas broilers he used. These broilers are still used today, and the restaurant has been in nearly continuous operation since it opened.
