USDA is a bit paranoid about ground beef and 160F is really well done.
I prefer a medium burger, and if you are grinding your own meat you are
less likely to have any problem with that. On the other hand, you added
pork, so maybe it's best to go for well done. You might try 145 to 150
next time to see if you like it better.
