Hamburgers - and their odd regional permutations - will grill at countless U.S. barbecues this Independence Day weekend, and Sundance Channel will honor the occurrence with the July Fourth TV debut of the documentary "Hamburger America," in which this state figures prominently.
Two of the eight burger joints profiled in George Motz's film are in Connecticut. Not only does it feature New Haven's famous Louis' Lunch, which has long boasted of being the birthplace of the hamburger in 1900, but the film also highlights the steamed cheeseburgers served at Ted's Restaurant in Meriden since 1959. - Complete article

The film also includes a visit to the Billy Goat Tavern in Chicago, made famous in the "Saturday Night Live" sketch for John Belushi's "cheezeborger, cheezeborger, cheezeborger!"
