An adjustable patty maker includes a container top, a main platform, a separator plate and a container. The container top is hingedly connected with the main platform, and the container is removably attached with the main platform opposite from the container top. The separator plate is positioned on a release paddle of the main platform so that a patty can be produced from a portion of materials. The container top moves in between an opened and closed configuration so that the portion of material can be placed on the separator plate. Once the patty is produced in between the container top and the main platform, the release paddle is able to drop the patty and the separator plate into the container.
