Do you love hamburgers? You know how they were created, don't you? Let's take a walk through the main facts about the creators of
sobre 100,00 hamburguers in United States.

Louis' Lunch
The rst hamburgers in U.S. history were served in New Haven, Connecticut, at Louis' Lunch sandwich shop in 1895. Louis Lassen,
founder of Louis' Lunch, ran a small lunch wagon selling steak sandwiches to local factory workers. Because he didn't like to waste
the excess beef from his daily lunch rush, he ground it up, grilled it, and served it between two slices of bread -- and America's rst
hamburger was created.
The small Crown Street luncheonette is still owned and operated by third and fourth generations of the Lassen family. Hamburgers
are still the specialty of the house, where steak is ground fresh each day and hand molded, slow cooked, broiled vertically, and
served between two slices of toast with your choice of only three "acceptable" garnishes: cheese, tomato, and onion.

Want ketchup or mustard? Forget it. You will be told "no" in no uncertain terms. This is the home of the greatest hamburger in the
world, claim the owners, who are perhaps best known for allowing their customers to have a burger the Lassen way or not at all. 
Charlie Nagreen
One of the earliest claims comes from Charlie Nagreen, who in 1885 sold a meatball between two slices of bread at the Seymour
Fair, now sometimes called the Outagamie County Fair.The Seymour Community Historical Society of Seymour, Wisconsin, credits
Nagreen, now known as "Hamburger Charlie", with the invention. Nagreen was fteen when he was reportedly selling pork
sandwiches at the 1885 Seymour Fair, made so customers could eat while walking. The Historical Society explains that Nagreen
named the hamburger after the Hamburg steak with which local German immigrants were familiar.

Otto Kuase
According to White Castle, Otto Kuase was the inventor of the hamburger. In 1891 he created a beef patty cooked in butter and
topped with a fried egg. German sailors would later omit the fried egg.

Oscar Weber Bilby


The family of Oscar Weber Bilby claim the rst-known hamburger on a bun was served on July 4, 1891 on Grandpa Oscar's farm. The
bun was a yeast bun.In 1995, Governor Frank Keating proclaimed that the rst true hamburger on a bun was created and consumed in
Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1891, calling Tulsa, "The Real Birthplace of the Hamburger."

Frank and Charles Menches


Frank and Charles Menches claim to have sold a ground beef sandwich at the Erie County Fair in 1885 in Hamburg, New York.During
the fair, they ran out of pork sausage for their sandwiches and substituted beef. Kunzog, who spoke to Frank Menches, says they
exhausted their supply of sausage, so purchased chopped up beef from a butcher, Andrew Klein. Historian Joseph Streamer wrote
that the meat was from Stein's market not Klein's, despite Stein's having sold the market in 1874. The story notes that the name of
the hamburger comes from Hamburg, New York not Hamburg Germany.Frank Menches's obituary in The New York Times states that
these events took place at the 1892 Summit County Fair in Akron, Ohio.

Fletcher Davis
Fletcher Davis of Athens, Texas claimed to have invented the hamburger. According to oral histories, in the 1880s he opened a lunch
counter in Athens and served a 'burger' of fried ground beef patties with mustard and Bermuda onion between two slices of bread,
with a pickle on the side. The story is that in 1904, Davis and his wife Ciddy ran a sandwich stand at the St. Louis World's Fair.
Historian Frank X. Tolbert, noted that Athen's resident Clint Murchison said his grandfather dated the hamburger to the 1880s with
'Old Dave' a.k.a. Fletcher Davis. A photo of "Old Dave's Hamburger Stand" from 1904 was sent to Tolbert as evidence of the claim.
Also the New York Tribune, without giving names, attributed the innovation of the hamburger to the stand on the pike.
