Cheddar-Horseradish Burgers

Absolutely YUMMY burgers!
I got the recipe from a Martha Stewart cookbook.
If you doubt this recipe because it has horseradish in it, try it anyways. You really can't taste it.

Cheddar-Horseradish Burgers

1 1/2 lb. (80% lean) ground beef (more fat makes the burgers fall apart)
3-4 Tbsp. bottled white horseradish
1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper to taste
sliced cheddar cheese
English muffins

in a medium bowl, place beef, horseradish, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix thoroughly to combine, but being careful not to overwork the meat (which would make the burgers dense). Form meat into 4 equal size patties (i can usually get about 6). With a thumb, make a 1/2 inch deep indentation in the center o f the patty (this helps keep burgers flat during grilling).

Top with sliced cheddar cheese and serve on toasted English muffins with desired toppings. hamburgers are definitely better when grill but just as good pan fried.
