I used mayo horseradish, which worked just the same. I didn't put the cheese in the hamburger. Instead we put it on top. The buns were "Simple Whole Wheat Bread" from this website.

We loved these! They were a huge hit at our cookout. We will definitely make again.

Very good!

Dubled recipe and added one egg. husband loved burger and now I will never get away with making a plain patty again.

These burgers are SO good! I get SO many compliments on them everytime I make them. I add extra bacon and cheese though it's not necessary and don't worry about the horseradish, you can't taste it. I even add extra because I love horseradish. The burgers do not fall apart if you refridgerate them for 20 minutes or so after forming the patties, no egg is necessary. Great recipe!

My husband LOVED these! I thought they were good but a little rich. I made them as written with the exception of using sharp cheddar cheese (maybe that is why they were rich?). I also added a little minced garlic. I agree with those who said they were a bit salty. Next time I will omit the salt. I used extra lean ground beef and I had no problem with the burgers falling apart.

Very good burgers! I tripled the recipe and added two eggs, that's it!! Everyone loved them! Thanks!

This was absolutely delicious! I added a 1/2 tsp. worchestire sauce, a tsp of seasoning salt, and a Tbsp. cold water because after adding the bacon and cheese, the texture of the meat felt a little dry. Served on onion rolls with BBQ sauce. Great flavor!

I made these almost exactly as written. I used small cubed pepper jack instead of grated cheddar and used 5 pieces of crumbled freshly cooked bacon in leiu or bacon bits. Next time I will OMIT the 1/2 teaspoon of salt as the bacon and cheese have enough salt to season the burger adequately. The horseradish gave the burger a fabulous zest but you cannot taste that tell tale horseradish taste. My husband hates horseradish as a condiment but could not tell what gave the burgers that great zestyness so go ahead and use the full 2 tablespoons! I mixed the cheese, horseradish, bacon and spices all together with a wooden spoon. I then added the ground beef, 4% fat, and mixed until very well combined. Since some complained of the burgers falling apart I put the burger in a ziplock and put it in the freezer for 20 minutes, then made patties and got them on the drill immediately. I had no issue with them falling apart what so ever. This is a very tasty recipe that I will certainly use again.

Excellent burger! I made as is. It tastes "different" but is very good.

I made these for the first time several weeks ago, and now my husband requests them all the time! I tried using bacon bits the first time, but it didn't taste much like bacon in the burger and left strange red 'dots' in the meat - it looked like the meat was uncooked in spots (and it was cooked). So we always use real bacon crumbled up now. The topping we love is my moms bbq sauce mixed with mayonnaise - it's amazing! Totally don't need ketchup when you do that, and it goes perfectly with the taste of the burger.

Excellent recipe!! Will definitely make these over and over again! I did add some finely diced sweet onion but the rest of the recipe I did exactly the same. Very moist. Had to add an egg to help keep it together and even then they wanted to fall apart on the grill. Next time I will freeze the patties and grill them right from the freezer to see if they hold together better.

These were so good, I put it in some green onions, used some sharp cheddar and placed some grilled pineapple on top. They did fall apart a little bit during the cooking, but it wasn't really that much.

Ok - - MAYBE I'm easy to please, because I've done quite a few 5-star ratings, But this was HONESTLY VERY GOOD! I do NOT like horseradish, but I followed the recipe, but DID go ahead and add a "glop" of A-1. Very moist, very tasty!! Neither hubby or 13 year old needed nor wanted catsup or ANYthing on their burgers!! I'm quadrupling the recipe for a birthday bar-b-q today! Originally served this with a Macaroni & Cheese salad found here on this website.

we did it today,sat,, it was very very goooood.....

I HATE hamburgers, but I had one of these and actually enjoyed it! Needless to say, kids and DH loved them. I followed the recipe, other than adding salt. Thanks for the great post!
