Recipe: Brussels Sprouts with Hot Bacon Dressing

By: Stacey Little

Do you hate Brussels sprouts? Prepare to change your mind. These are, by far, the best Brussels sprouts I’ve ever had. Seriously. This is, undoubtedly, my favorite way to make the cruciferous veggie.

Roasting them at a super-high temperature gives them so much flavor as the natural sugars in the sprouts caramelize. And then, this stupid delicious dressing is made with bacon grease, onion, garlic, vinegar, brown sugar and a touch of Dijon mustard. It’s sweet, smoky, tangy and complements the Brussels sprouts in an amazing way.
