Your saved recipes, finally cooked.
You save a recipe reel, then it sits there for months. Back Burner turns the recipes you save on Instagram and Facebook into a week of meal prep: clean recipes with macros, one shopping list, and one cooking plan.
Android first, iPhone soon. Beta spots go to the waitlist first.
From a saved reel to a stocked fridge
Four steps, no retyping recipes from a caption.
Share the reel
Tap Share on any recipe post or reel and send it to Back Burner. Or paste the link.
Get a clean recipe
Ingredients, simple steps and macros per serving. The creator stays credited and linked.
Plan your week
Drop recipes onto breakfast, lunch and dinner, Monday to Sunday. See each day's macros.
Shop once, cook once
One merged shopping list, then one prep timeline that cooks everything together.
Built for people who prep
Everything a meal prep Sunday needs, and nothing it doesn't.
Macros on every recipe
Calories, protein, carbs and fat per serving, matched to USDA nutrition data. Set daily targets and see each planned day against them.
One shopping list
Every recipe's ingredients merged, sorted by aisle, and rounded to the packages you actually buy. Staples you already have stay out of the way.
One prep timeline
Steps from all your recipes, ordered so the oven and the stove work at the same time and everything finishes together.
Cook mode with timers
One step at a time, with timers that alert you even when your phone is locked.
Fridge-life warnings
Planning Friday's lunch from Sunday's prep? Back Burner tells you to freeze that portion, and when to thaw it.
Your back burner, tracked
See how long each recipe has waited, rate what you've made, and search everything you saved by ingredient.

Questions
Which apps can I save recipes from?
Instagram and Facebook posts and reels, and most recipe websites. Share the post to Back Burner, or paste the link.
Is it on iPhone?
Android comes first, then iPhone. Join the waitlist and we'll email you when your version is ready.
What happens when I join the waitlist?
We'll email you when the beta opens and when the app launches. Beta testers get early access and help shape the app. No spam, and you can ask us to remove your email any time.
Do recipe creators get credit?
Yes. Every recipe keeps the creator's name and a link back to the original post, so their content gets cooked, not just saved.
