Hamburg, Germany. It started as a sort of meatball, but took too long cooking on the grill so, finally, out of sheer frustration, the cook smashed it down with his spatula and made a patty out of it. It cooked faster that way. The bun came later- when a customer wanted it "to go".

I always thought that the birthplace of the burger was Hamburg, Germany... hence the name "hamburger"

Hamburg Germany. Then maybe a brainwave actually sparked within the states (or a traveler) and we had them in Texas.

History says New York started making the burgers to please the Germans who came over by ship in the 1700s and this is how this came to America. The Germans and Asians and Romans.... have been making them centuries earlier.

It was made in Connecticut, and there are very old records suggesting that also, so there is evidential proof for this also
