where were hamburgers invented
Best Answer: Frank and Charles Menches are often credited with having invented the hamburger sandwich. The brothers, who lived in Ohio, were traveling concessionaires, selling ground pork sandwiches at county fairs. One day in 1885, so the story goes, they went to a butcher for ground pork, but he had run out of it.
There have been rival claims by Charlie Nagreen, Frank and Charles Menches, Oscar Weber Bilby, and Fletcher Davis. White Castle traces the origin of the hamburger to Hamburg, Germany with its invention by Otto Kuase.
