History Of Hamburgers And Cheese Burgers

Let's be honest for a moment. With all amazing things throughout history, the origin can be unclear and confusing. Don't expect any less for the history of hamburgers. Since at least the 1890s, "hamburger steak sandwiches" have been advertised in U.S. newspapers from New York to Hawaii. So who invented this?

The invention of hamburgers is commonly attributed to various people, including Charlie Nagreen, Frank and Charles Menches, Oscar Weber Bilby, Fletcher Davis, or Louis Lassen. White Castle traces the origin of the hamburger to Hamburg, Germany with its invention by Otto Kuase. Some have pointed to a recipe for “Hamburgh sausages” on toasted bread, which was published in “The Art of Cookery Made Plain and Easy” by Hannah Glasse in 1747."

The origins may be tricky, but we do know that hamburgers gained national recognition at the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair. This is when the New York Tribune referred to the hamburger as "the innovation of a food vendor on the pike".
