For these burgers, Martha loves Milton Creamery's Prairie Breeze cheddar and Challerhocker Swiss, both available at Murray's Cheese. Grate the horseradish and add it to the cheeses right before grilling; it quickly loses its potency once grated.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups coarsely grated aged cheddar (4 1/2 ounces)
1 1/2 cups coarsely grated aged Swiss (5 ounces)
5 teaspoons freshly grated horseradish, or prepared horseradish to taste
3 pounds grass-fed ground beef chuck (85 percent lean)
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Tips:

Use high-quality ground beef. The better the beef, the better the burgers will be. Look for ground beef that is at least 80% lean.
Season the beef well. Don't be afraid to use a generous amount of salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or smoked paprika.
Mix the beef gently. Over-mixing the beef will make the burgers tough. Just mix it until the ingredients are combined.
Form the burgers gently. Again, don't overwork the beef. Just form it into patties that are about 3/4-inch thick.
Cook the burgers over medium heat. This will help to prevent the burgers from drying out.
Don't flip the burgers too often. Only flip them once, when they are cooked about halfway through.
Let the burgers rest before serving. This will help to keep the juices in the burgers.

Conclusion:

These aged cheddar and Swiss cheeseburgers are the perfect comfort food. They're juicy, flavorful, and cheesy. And they're so easy to make! Just follow these tips and you'll be sure to impress your friends and family with your culinary skills.
