2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon mustard powder
3/4 cup beer
1/2 cup half-and-half
6 ounces grated sharp yellow cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon horseradish
1 1/2 pounds ground beef, preferably chuck
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Vegetable oil, for the grill

1
Preheat a grill to medium high.
2
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
3
Add the flour and mustard powder and cook, stirring, 3 minutes.
4
Whisk in the beer and bring to a simmer; whisk in the half-and-half until smooth.
5
Return the sauce to a simmer and cook, whisking occasionally, until thickened, 3 to 4 minutes.
6
Stir in the cheese and horseradish until smooth; keep warm.
7
Form the beef into four 6-ounce patties, about 3/4 inch thick; press the center of each patty with your thumb to make a 1/2-inch-deep indentation.

Season the patties on both sides with salt and pepper.
9
Lightly brush the grill grates with vegetable oil, then grill the patties, indentation-side up, until marked on the bottom, about 5 minutes.
10
Flip and cook until marked and slightly firm, about 3 more minutes for medium doneness.
11
Remove the patties to a plate and let rest 5 minutes.
12
Grill the rolls, cut-side down, until lightly toasted, about 1 minute.
13
Top the bun bottoms with the burger patties, cheese sauce, tomato and chives.
