I'll take those burgers to go.
Can I get that to go?
Those are to go.

The emphasis is in the term "to go." To do so is to have "take-out."

Such as: "Hey bro, do you want to have Chinese tonight? Yeah, but it better be to go."

In my area I rarely ever hear the word "take-out" and its combinations anymore. It's mostly "to go." Probably has to do with marketing and an emphasis on ease and efficiency.

@daliu_771 Sorry for not answering your questions. In America we often refer to Chinese food as "Chinese" without the word "food." While in some contexts it would be weird without the word "food." "Take the burgers out" does not sound natural. Take out and take-out are the same. In English its correct to put hyphens between words. Such as: "The 20-year-old girl." I was just pointing out the evolution of English. "Take-out food" is a correct term. It would be a restaurant that allows you to order the food and take it home/or wherever. I'm someone who loves marketing, copywriting, and public relations. In copywriting and marketing you want to make things SOUND easy, fast, simple. For example, no one wants to face the reality that it takes effort to lose weight. So you create a product that "Sheds up to 15 pounds in 30 days" or can "Help you lose up to 10 pounds in your sleep." A restaurant that serves "food to go" sounds like a restaurant that is fast. Vs a restaurant that has "takeout." Such a simple change in wording could increase your bottom line by millions. Then all the companies use that word. Now you would have massive billion dollar companies using just "to go." So society adopts that word. English evolves. Takeout becomes slightly dated. I think I remember my parents saying "take-out" as a kid in the 90s. Sorry if this confusing at all. If so, ignore it. The first answer is correct. Also, don't take anything I say as a hard and fast rule. Take it all with a grain of salt.
