The Swift/BAT hard X-ray transient monitor reports an outburst of the X-ray pulsar GRO J1750-27 (also known as AX J1749.1-2639). The source was first detected at 0.031 +/- 0.005 cts/cm^2/sec (140 mcrab) in a 320-sec observation in the 15-50 keV energy range, beginning at 11:26:40 UT on Jan. 29, 2008 (MJD 54494). It has been observed above 100 mcrab in all pointings since this initial detection. The detection significances in individual pointings average 6-7 sigma.
