hamburgers

There are few dishes as universally enjoyed as the hamburger. This humble yet versatile creation has found its way into the hearts and stomachs of people across the globe. Every year on May 28th, we celebrate International Hamburger Day, a day dedicated to honouring this iconic ‘sandwich’ in all its delicious forms. Here at N1, home of the best quality meat Cape Town and Johannesburg have on offer, we even have an entire burger range to choose from!

As leading suppliers of the best wholesale meat Western Cape and Johannesburg have to offer, we always strive to provide not only the best quality products but also to keep abreast of all developments in the meat sector.

Most often thought of as fast food, the humble burger has come a long way since it first gained recognition at the 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair where it was referred to as ‘the innovation of a food vendor on the pike’.  Elevated to almost cult-like status, today most menus will boast some form of bistro or gourmet burger, and people are always on the hunt for the best burger in town. Which brings us to Big 7 Travel, a website that provides current, curated recommendations, about where to go, what to do and what to eat in cities across the globe.

Yes, we know the word ‘bestest’ doesn’t really exist, but when it comes to burgers we tend towards hyperbole – why? Because burgers, that’s why! The exact origin of hamburgers may well be disputed – was it German immigrants who brought Hamburg Steak over from the motherland or was it a certain Charlie Nagreen in Wisconsin who began selling flattened meatballs on two slices of bread who can claim the title of ‘it all began with me’? Regardless of origin, what is undisputed is the world’s subsequent love affair with this delectable meal.
