    I am some 20 thousands miles away from Fort Worth, TX. Being in Milan, Italy. The only place where we have burgers is Mac Donald's. We don't consider hamburgers something you can have at a restaurant, because they can be made at home with no efforts. It all depends on what you expect a chef to cook for you of course. But I love hamburgers and fries, and I would easily get along with tex mex food for the rest of my life.

    It's NOT '' Hamburger Steak '' !! It's '' Hamburg Steak ! ''
    The Hamburg Steak originated in Hamburg, Germany ! It's a Thick Ground Beef Steak patty cooked and topped with a brown onion mushroom gravy. The Original Burger & Cheeseburger originated at a Truck Stop Cafe in Athens, Tx in 1898 by a man named Uncle Dave Fletcher who introduced it at the State Fair in Dallas, Tx in 1904 !
    Two different food items ! And if the Bacon came from a Pig born, raised, butchered and processed in Canada,
    then one can call it Canadian Bacon !! LOL

    Pro Tip: "Not frozen" meat is kept about 1 degree above freezing, it's significantly more risky to the consumer if something does happen the meat goes bad very quickly (so you much check it's temp often) and since it's not frozen it literally sits in a bag of blood until you stick your hand into the liquid trying to feel for it it out of the cooler.
    Ask me how I know =/

    • @danielw8620
      @danielw8620 3 года назад +2

      ? pretty sure not frozen just means they get it from the grocery store or butcher and cook it within 3 days and it's kept in the fridge relax lol. It is obviously frozen at the butcher or grocery store before they buy it but dethawed for display. Frozen patties r like those patties that come premade and shaped etc.
