In my opinion these two food items should have there own separate days. So, I just thought I would combine. There are some really good recipes for brisket burgers. Now for another obscure national day.
May 28, 2019 – NATIONAL HAMBURGER DAY – NATIONAL BRISKET DAY
NATIONAL HAMBURGER DAY
National Hamburger Day is observed each year on May 28. This day celebrates a summer-time grilling favorite and National Hamburger Day is part of National Hamburger Month.
Hamburger. Seasoned ground beef, grilled and placed between two slices of bread or a bun. Top with sauteed onions, peppers, pickles, sliced onions, or cheese. Add condiments such as ketchup, mustard or mayo. Any one of these combinations would create a modern American version a hamburger.
It is most likely that the hamburger sandwich first appeared in the 19th or early 20th centuries, but there is much controversy over its origin. Over the years, the hamburger has become a culinary icon in the United States.
The world’s largest hamburger was prepared on September 2, 2012, in Carlton, Minnesota by Black Bear Casino Resort and weighed in at 2,014 pounds.

National Brisket Day is observed annually on May 28. As one of the nine primal cuts of beef, brisket comes from the breast or lower chest of beef or veal.
Brisket is a tough and relatively inexpensive cut of meat. While it requires some patience to cook brisket to tenderness, the reward is well worth the effort. Select a well-marbled cut of meat. The fat will keep the brisket moist and add flavor to the final product. Season it well and give it a dark sear. This will seal in the juices. Cook it slow, cook it long.
It can be cooked in the oven or over indirect heat over charcoal or wood. Many times oak, pecan, hickory or mesquite is added to the other hardwoods to enhance the flavor. Brisket will be fork tender when it is fully cooked and is then served with or without a sauce.
