Remember the other day when I posted these Bleu Cheese Burgers? And I told you how I got a grill for an early birthday present from my wife?

Well, we put her together. And she’s beautiful.

But that birthday present has done nothing except make me feel old.

I know a lady never reveals her age, but I can reveal that on my next birthday I will have slid straight into my mid-30’s. Not old, right?

Well, tell that to my body.

Putting together the grill resulted in no less than one bruised knee, a pulled hip muscle, a banged-up left arm, various mosquito bites which have caused my body to go into an all-out allergy attack against itself, and several other bumps and scrapes. Who knew that I’d fall over, bang myself into every sharp edge available, and offer my body up as a snack for every flying bug?

Seriously, the morning after the grill set-up I could barely move. Okay, I could move…I just walked with a limp and winced every time I bent my knee.

Was it worth it?

Oh hellllllll yeah.

Meat is my new best friend. And I’ve grilled every day since we set her up.

One grill = 2 hours of physical abuse, but tons of delicious grilled food. Like those Bleu Cheese Burgers from the other day.

Today’s post is the icing to those bleu cheese burgers.

Have you ever had pretzel hamburger buns? If your answer is no, girrrrrrl, you’re missing out. These put those regular ol’ burger buns to shame. Regular buns are like the ugly cousin of the burger bun world compared to these babies.

If you love pretzels, you’ll love these buns. They’re a great way to enhance any burger. I used the pretzel dough recipe from my Mini Pretzel Dogs and simply adapted it for these buns.

These are no joke. (unlike me putting together a grill)
