Steamed cheeseburger Mainly available in central Connecticut. It is believed to have been invented at a restaurant called Jack's Lunch in Middletown, Connecticut in the 1930s. Instead of being fried in a pan or grilled on a grill, a steamed cheeseburger is steamed in a stainless-steel cabinet containing trays that hold either a hamburger patty or a piece of cheese. This method of cooking makes the fats in the meat melt away, resulting in a moist, juicy burger which is then put on a bun and covered with the melted cheese. Various customary toppings can then be added to the burger.[44]
