Zippy Burgers

I made these last night. I got the recipe from taste of home kitchens. I was too tired to take a picture and besides that the heat got to me. 
I had worked in the yards a little yesterday. I made the recipe as is. I always do the first time around. The cumin and red pepper came thru loud and clear. I could not taste the beer at all. I used a dark german beer. I prefer that when cooking. I also used buffalo and made 3 big patties. They were ever so moist and I will used this recipe again and I will take some pics for you all; but next time I may forsake the red pepper and go with a fresh jalepeno. 
I did throw some thick sliced vidalias on the grill to get the smoke flavor. Otherwise, this was very tasty! this is a keeper for me.
