Burgers of all kinds are the mainstay of backyard barbecues everywhere. Certainly, they are the cash cow of most fast food restaurants, and they also seem to come in at least a thousand different varieties.
There is a strange fact that many people don’t know about one of the most popular ‘cuts’ of meat out there today. Honest to goodness, the hamburger started out as garbage meat.
Seriously, it was made from the waste that was produced in the process of butchering the more desirable cuts of meat from the cow, such as the steak or the roast. That’s right, this delicious sandwich that is known around the world actually began its life as a byproduct from the unwanted meats, the left-over slices from shaping up meat, and the general detritus of tissue that was left after those cattle were butchered. Eating hamburger used to mean that people simply couldn’t afford to eat a pricier cut of meat.
