Talk:steakburger

RFV discussion
Rfv-sense: A burger containing unground steak rather than a patty.

I think this only refers to a better-than-expected hamburger, eg, one made from a better cut of beef. There was a court case c. 2004 which seems to consistent with my definition (now added), but not wholly inconsistent with other uses of the term. DCDuring TALK 18:29, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
 * The contested definition is precisely what I would expect if I ordered a steakburger. If I was given a patty I'd think there was a mistake made. Perhaps this is a regional variation?--Dmol 23:58, 17 April 2010 (UTC)


 * There could certainly be regional usage variation. In what regions have you ordered a steakburger? In the US we have "steak sandwich" (and, narrowly, "Philly cheesesteak") that would that definition in places I've been. I have seen no documentary evidence for the challenged sense and no regional context was offered. DCDuring TALK 02:04, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Here's a couple of recipes with fillet steak rather than ground meat., , --Dmol 13:20, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
 * They are for "steak burger" not "steakburger". They are not durably archived sources. An RfV is about attestation. There should be usage in cookbooks and newspapers if this usage is widespread. DCDuring TALK 15:20, 23 April 2010 (UTC)


 * In my part of Canada, I have seen steakburger as being the sense provided. I have also seen it spelled as steak burger. The burger in question uses either a sub bun or a burger bun with a single piece of thinly sliced steak. While a steak sandwich looks more like a London steak on a bun. On the other hand, I have seen a ground beef patty burger also called a steak burger, because it used premium beef. 76.66.193.224 07:39, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
