The original hamburger was a patty made of chopped ground beef and flour, so it was called a beef patty. Ancient Tatars had the habit of eating beef raw, and as the Tatars moved westward, it was first introduced to the Balkan Peninsula and then to Germany, where it was gradually changed from raw food to cooked food.

The people of Hamburg, Germany, improved it by kneading chopped beef into flour and spreading it into cakes to be fried and baked to eat, so it was called "Hamburger Meatloaf" after the name of the place.

In 1850, the German immigrants brought the Hamburger Meatloaf cooking skills to the United States.

In 1932, some people put this fried beef patty into the surface of a small round bread sprinkled with sesame seeds as a staple food or snack to eat, and then the pattern of renovation, and gradually merged with sandwiches, the beef patty sandwiched between a cut in two buns, known as Hamburger, which is meant to be a hamburger bun.

By the late 20th century, Americans had refined the hamburg steak and drove it into fast-food restaurants, the origin of today's beloved hamburger.
