16 minutes ago, cdh said:Hamburger steaks are news to me... Not a thing in the part of Pennsylvania I live in, nor were they a thing in NYC, nor were they a thing in Austin... I presume they're a patty of ground meat served with a steak-y sauce and no bun. Or are they a pummeled-rather-than-ground meat thing that gets turned into a "Swiss Steak" round abouts where I live?
In my ken, they were a mid-Century diner food, aka Salisbury steak A larger than bunned portion of ground beef, oblong, served as part of a main plate, with or without gravy. Well done. Maybe still available as a frozen dinner entree.
