Directions

GRILLED VIDALIA ONIONS

HORSERADISH MUSTARD

HAMBURGERS

FIRST THING I DID WAS HALVE THE RECIPE! For the Grilled Vidalias: Preheat the gas grill, charcoal grill or GF Grill.

Brush the onions with olive oil on both sides and season with salt and pepper. Grill until golden brown, 3-4 minutes per side if using gas or charcoal. For GF Grill, should be 3-4 minutes total. Remove and set aside.

For the Mustard: Mix the mustard and horseradish together in a small bowl.

May be refrigerated up to 1 week; serve at room temperature. Makes 1 cup.

For burgers: Divide the chuck into 8 5-oz burgers and season on both sides with salt and pepper (handle as little as possible and form the burgers loosely). On the preheated grill, cook 3-4 minutes on each side for medium rare. For GF Grill, place on grill and cook for 5 minutes total for medium rare.

During the last minute of cooking, top each burger with 2 slices of cheese, cover the grill, and let the cheese melt, about 1 minute. If using GF Grill, take burgers off, top with cheese and place in warmed toaster oven or oven (on low) for a moment to melt cheese. Split the buns and toast on the grill, cut side down, until golden.

Place a burger in each bun and top with lettuce, onions, tomato and a dollop of horseradish mustard. Arrange on a large platter.
