Metallica's James Hetfield launches signature cigar; California restaurant creates Ozzy Osbourne-inspired burger

If your love of metal expands beyond just the music, then perhaps you'd be interested in a James Hetfield cigar or an Ozzy Osbourne burger.

The Metallica frontman has launched his own signature stogie, according to Cigar Aficionado. The Blacked M81 was created in collaboration with cigar maker Jonathan Drew and distiller Rob Dietrich, who also works with Metallica on their Blackened Whiskey.

"The three of us connected and shared each other's vision and story about where we've been, what we like to see and what is important to us now," Hetfield says. "We all came up with what a Blackened M81 cigar would look and taste like."

Cigar Aficionado will be offering Blackened M81s at the magazine's upcoming Big Smoke Las Vegas event in November.

Meanwhile, the metal-themed burger joint Grill 'Em All has announced a new sandwhich inspired by Ozzy. Fittingly for the Prince of Darkness, the burger is served on a black bun with "house made
chimichurri, garlic aioli, blue cheese, onion frizzle and field greens" topping a half-pound of meat.

You can try one for yourself this Saturday, October 1 at the Grill 'Em All in Alhambra, California. While the real Ozzy won't be in attendance, the 25-foot inflatable version of the Black Sabbath frontman, which previously made its debut over the summer at San Diego Comic-Con, will be on display.
