What is a Burger?

A burger is a sandwich consisting of one or more cooked patties of ground meat, usually beef, placed inside a sliced bread roll or bun. The patty may be fried, grilled, or smoked. Burgers are often served with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, cheese, bacon, or chiles. Burgers can also be made without meat (veggie burgers), or with fish, poultry, or other ingredients.
