German Steak German Steaks
German steak, known in some Latin American countries also as "German steak" or "German hamburger," is a traditional recipe that has its roots in German cuisine. This preparation became popular due to German influence in countries like Mexico, Argentina, and Chile, where it was adapted to local ingredients.
In countries like Mexico, German steak has become a highly valued home-cooked dish, while in other parts of Latin America, it may vary slightly in name and presentation but maintains its essence as ground meat prepared with soaked bread and seasoned with onion. Its name refers to its Germanic origin, and it is often distinguished by the juiciness that the moist bread adds to the meat mixture.
