    As stated above, details please!
     
    But, gotta admit, a hot pretzel is the last thing I want right now; it just don't feel right watching the vikings/seahawks when its in the 90's outside yet.  And supposed to hit triple digits again this next week, poor schoolkids!
     
    Right now the only finger food I'd be into is sushi, or a cold cucumber/salt shaker.

    It’s really easy....I started doing it because my kids are young and love to snack on them instead of chips, junk etc.  

    Here you go:
    Start with a batch of BGE pizza dough. 
    https://biggreenegg.com/recipes/pizza-dough/

    Then after proofing divide in to eight equal portions. 

    I hand roll each portion into a rope about 20-24” about 1/2 - 3/4” thick.  

    Tie into a pretzel knot and let rest about 20 min.  (Make a U then twist the ends and fold over)

    Boil a few quarts of water with 3/4 cup of baking soda.  

    Set the soft pretzels in the boiling water for about 30 - 45 sec each.  Then set on a drying rack.

    Get the egg with a pizza stone to a good 400-425.  (I like to dust with a little cornmeal)

    Salt pretzel and set on pizza stone until golden brown.  Maybe 12-15 min.  

    When done brush with a little melted butter.  

    Promise it will be the best pretzel you’ve ever had.
