A meat patty or burger. Beef minced (US: ground) with onions and formed into a thin patty. It is commonly then grilled and served on a soft white bread roll with a gherkins (US: dill pickle) and a choice of sauces. The beef burger is a very good example of something which, when made at home with good quality beef and served with a thoughtful sauce, can be a delight but which, in mass production, is pretty horrible.
