What is a way to take a hamburger to a whole new level.

I recently discovered that pretzel rolls and hamburger buns exist.  Damn do they super charge a burger.

ummm, ok what is a pretzel roll?

Take the stuff you make soft pretzels out of and bake it in the shape of a roll (and skip the outer salt coating)

Wendy's has a pretzel burger and it's terrific. Single double or triple. Single tastes the best.

So you're saying the best part of the pretzel burger is the roll? I think I'll pass. If I do get a craving for a pretzel I'll grab one at Auntie Anne's. 

Actually I was thinking recently about what to do with my spent grains on brew day. Perhaps I'll dry some and mill it into flour for rolls.  Hmmmmm.

I can't speak of them as Hamberger buns, but a bakery in my neighborhood has been making Pretzel Rolls for more years than I have been living here. A side note, this particular bakery has been voted best bakery on Long Island 7 different times, so their stuff is good and I have been a fan of these pretzel rolls since the first time I ate one. I never thought about using them for hamburgers, I usually have them with some fresh cream cheese, some lox, a slice of Bermuda onion, and another slice of beefsteak tomato.  If fact I have some in the freezer right now, so maybe tomorrow for lunch???

I didn't say that. The roll with the ingredients make a good product.

Oh man....those look fantastic!! I'm not sure where that is but I remember finding a really good bagel shop in Queens when we were taking our daughter to St. John's for school visits when she was choosing which college to attend. (Keep in mind I grew up in an area that wasn't exactly known for its bagels, so take my opinion with a grain of salt). I guess it's a good thing she ended up not choosing St. John's otherwise I would've turned into a bagel.

This is it. Ever been here?  -  http://bagelsn.co/about/

It took me a few minutes to see where that bagel place was. I can't say if I ever bought anything there. as I used to do a lot of work in that area and stopped at quite a few 'Kosher' places like that for lunch. No, I rarely get into that area, but thanks for the  heads up.

Smash burger had a Pretzel roll about a decade + ago

Wasn't my secret - word was on the street! Lol

um ok,  I kinda don't eat at hamburger fast food type places myself.
And you guys look down your noses at gator tail?
How about coneys and salt potatoes and all that Syracuse stuff I grew up with ?
