hamburger
Bun-enclosed patty
A hamburger is a cooked patty of ground beef served in a sliced round bun, typically with condiments and toppings like lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles.
The word often refers to the complete sandwich: Let's grab a hamburger for lunch.
Ground beef itself may be called hamburger: a pound of hamburger.
Shortened to burger, the term extends to patties made from other ingredients: turkey burger, veggie burger.
