Here's the quick scoop:
- Legendary Burger = 1 Pepper + 1 Corn + 1 Tomato (primary recipe).

- Cook it in the pot right by Chris P. Bacon.
- Feed burgers to Chris P. during his craving for Gourmet Eggs, Seed Packs, pets, and cool cosmetics.
How Burgers Work in Grow a Garden
Making burgers here isn’t about meat : it’s all about combining high-tier veggies. You need Divine+ rarity crops, like the Pepper from the Seed Shop, to get started. Just toss these into the cooking pot during special events. The more rare your ingredients, the longer the cook time (approximately 8 minutes for basic Legendary burgers) and the better your rewards. For more on the best crops to grow early on, check out the best early crops guide.
Plus, burgers come with a weight and mutation factor that affects cooking time and outcome. Feed your burger to Chris P. Bacon when he’s craving it to unlock the best bonuses. To maximize your feeding benefits, consider pairing your cooking efforts with the right pets from the pets tier list.
Note: Some burger recipes only work when Chris P. Bacon has specific cravings, and some higher-tier recipes remain undiscovered.
