What temperature do you like your burgers cooked to

I'm kinda weird. Sometimes I love charred to hell meat and then almost raw. It's kinda like eating a hot, fresh pizza. It's great but I also like it the next day cold. I guess Medium/Medium Well is my default but I like it undercooked or overcooked too.
 
if it's generic store bought beef or even at a restaurant, I go medium well, since I don't know who handled the meat or how long it might've been sitting out. But if I have fresh local beef and cook at home, medium rare is fine
 
Well done burgers but I like my steak medium to medium rare.
 
Pinks a color it’s not a temperature
I grill at about Tree Fiddy by the power of Weber.
 
Depends on the style.

If we're doing some fancy ass steak (ground brisket and ribeye) burger or bison burger it's going to be medium to medium rare.

If it's a thin style patty or smash burger, no pink.
 
Same as others. If I know the good source of meat myself I'll do a medium or so.

Most resturants, honestly medium well at minimum. Don't trust it.
 
Medium should be fine or even well done for smash burger. People are confusing steak and burgers.
 
I don't like a thick pub style burger. A couple of super thin smash patties are best. With those, you don't really check for done-ness as there is not a center you just get a crust on each side.
