Very good. The peppercorns provide a nice flavor to the burgers. I did use Swiss cheese in place of the cheddar. Thanks for sharing!

These were wonderful. My husband was looking for a new way to make hamburgers and stumbled upon this recipe. We tried it absolutely loved the peppercorn flavor. It was spicy enough to really notice it, but not too spicy to where it overwhelmed the burger flavor. Thanks for posting!
