L.A.'s history with burgers is a long one, tracing back more than a century to when the beloved handheld meal was but a humble "Hamburg Beef Steak." And boy, have we come a long way. Some of the first restaurants to serve them simply placed ground beef between two buns, but today, you can find burgers piled high with cheese, caramelized onions, bacon, more burgers, gourmet sauces and farm-fresh produce. The possibilities are endless, and here in L.A. that's especially true. That's why we need your help.
