Pressure Cooker is a video game for the Atari 2600 designed by Garry Kitchen and released by Activision in 1983. The player is a short-order cook at a hamburger stand who must assemble and package hamburgers to order without letting ingredients or hamburgers fall to the floor.
Kitchen had previously made three other games for the Atari 2600, including Keystone Kapers with Activision. He developed the game idea after seeing burgers moving out on a conveyor belt at a Burger King. On the game's release, contemporary reviews in found the game relatively unoriginal, while other reviews complimented the game for its graphics.
