Just go to standard time, and keep it that way. If you want a "longer day" for golfing or whatever during the warm months, nothing is stopping people from waking up an hour earlier.

If you make smaller patties (2 oz) and smash the snot out of them right away on a hot flat top with a trowel or whatever, it sears everything and prevents the burgers from drying out.
