Batman Apron

From That’s Nerdalicious:You would think that Alfred would handle most of the cooking, but Bruce Wayne won’t let anyone touch his grill. He also makes Alfred wear this when he’s in the kitchen, which is just wrong.

Sprite Stitch Board Member Jessii and his friend Terry put their heads together to create these one off Mario and Luigi aprons for Jessii’s Nintendo obsessed twin brothers, who are apparently covered in Nintendo tattoos and live off barbecues. Although the genetic similarities of twins will prevent a completely accurate Mario and Luigi representation, they’re still a great excuse to grill up some Italian food.

Eh, even with an insatiable desire for cookies, baking requires too much effort to perform…while baked. But if you are up to it, we have the apron for you.

nothing-to-the-table-apron

Everyone seeing you wear this apron had best hope you are kidding, because this will not be a good opening line for a date or dinner guests.

Perhaps it’s time to trade in your chicken shagger apron for something a little more practical.

It may sound like an excuse, and it may actually just be an excuse, but if you have to cook for a group of people out in the blazing sun, you may as well get free license to drink all the beer you want. The apron just validates you.

A serious griller will understand Homer’s dilemma. If you want serious flames, you need some gas. You just need to be a little cautious, which Homer obviously is not. You will still be a hit with the kids at the cook out with this apron, even more so if you get the matching oven mitt.

bbq-apron-kit

If you are heading to a friend’s house for a cook out but aren’t so sure about their cooking skills, you can take this kit with you and have everything you will need to take over. Wrapped up it looks like it just holds the BBQ utensils, but when unrolled the tote becomes an apron which will keep all those utensils handy. It also includes a hat and an oven mitt because you know that every serious chef has a hat.

zip-dry-apron

When cooking, the Zip & Dry apron will keep the food off your clothes while providing a handy towel at the bottom for cleaning your hands or utensils. When you’re finished, it can simply be zipped off to wipe down the counter. And guys, could wearing something like this possibly be more masculine? I think not.
