Burgers

Burgers, short for hamburgers, are a type of sandwich consisting of a cooked patty of ground meat, typically beef, that is served inside a sliced bun. The patty is often seasoned and may be grilled, fried, or broiled. Burgers can be topped with a variety of ingredients, including cheese, lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles, and condiments such as ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise. They are a staple of fast food and casual dining and have become popular worldwide. Variations of burgers include turkey, chicken, vegetarian, and vegan options, each using different types of patties or ingredients to cater to diverse dietary preferences. Burgers can also be served with sides, like fries or salads, and are often associated with outdoor grilling and barbecues. The term “burger” can also refer to the entire sandwich, including the bun and toppings, rather than just the meat patty itself.
