Hamburger States. In the U.S. in 1934, A.H. "Gus" Belt, the founder of Steak 'n Shake, devised a higher-quality hamburger and offered it as a "steakburger" to customers at the company's first location in Normal, Illinois.

Steak 'n Shake's "Prime Steakburgers" are now made of choice grade brisket and chuck. Beef is typical, although other meats
Hamburger Abendblatt Hamburger Abendblatt The Hamburger Abendblatt (English: "Hamburg Evening Newspaper") is a German daily newspaper in Hamburg. The paper focuses on news in Hamburg and area, and produces regional supplements with news from Norderstedt, Ahrensburg, Harburg, and Pinneberg. Politically the paper is mildly conservative, but usually pro-government, including during SPD administrations. Four previous Hamburg newspapers had the word "Abendblatt" ("Evening Newspaper") in their title, including one named the "Hamburger Abendblatt", founded on 2 May 1820. This incarnation of the "Hamburger Abendblatt", however, was first published after World War II beginning on 14 October 1948 with an initial edition of 60,000 copies.
