    I use all varieties of ground beef (from regular to extra lean), but sometimes I use ground turkey to save some cals. The chicken and turkey I get is 120cals per 100g - significantly lower than the leanest beef available at my grocers.

    I refuse to use turkey in a burger. At that point it is no longer a burger for me and won't work for that craving. Period. I also won't use super lean ground beef because I truly believe that a slightly higher fat content brings better flavor.

    If I'm not grinding my own brisket/chuck mix, I use ground chuck for my burgers. I'm not worried about dietary fat and if I'm going to have a burger then I'll work out the day's calories to allow for it.
