📢 The Krusty Krab has officially called for backup.

Word around Bikini Bottom is SpongeBob accidentally lost a bet to Plankton… and now he’s supposed to hand over the Secret Formula. 😬

Not on our watch!

We’re asking the grill masters of East Alabama & West Georgia to help us fool Plankton with the greatest collection of burger recipes this side of Goo Lagoon.

🍔 Think your burger deserves legendary status?
📝 Share your recipe in the comments or send it to us privately.

The recipe we choose will be featured in an upcoming issue of Neighborly Notes Magazine as our community’s very own “Secret Formula”! The feature will include the legendary “word scrabble” secret formula, a themed photo recipe & your backstory of the recipe!

‼️Now hurry…
Spin around three times, stop, double take, blow it, and drop your recipe below.
Patrick is currently standing on the street corner screaming "WEE-WOO" so we definitely don't have much time left. 🚨🚓
