Variations:

  • Add Cheese – Once the Brussel Sprouts are done, you can sprinkle with parmesan cheese or mozzarella cheese.
  • Mix in Sauce – We recommending adding in Worcestershire sauce, or BBQ Sauce, or balsamic vinegar.
  • Cook with Sausage – Adding in smoked sausage with this recipe taste amazing. It gives it so much flavor. We like to serve over rice for a complete meal.
  • Change the Seasoning – You can use garlic powder or minced garlic if you prefer. Add seasoning salt or other types of seasoning.
  • Oil – Use olive oil if you prefer not to cook the brussel sprouts in the bacon grease.
  • Drizzle with Syrup – Another favorite that we have recently discovered is drizzling maple syrup on top of cooked brussel sprouts.
  • Foil Pack – You can also place the ingredients in a foil pack and cook on your gas grill. This is perfect side if you don’t have a Blackstone Griddle.

Can I Make this Recipe in the Oven?

Yes, if you prefer to make this in your oven, it still will turn out perfectly. I would cook you back first on the stovetop or in the oven. Then place the brussel sprouts on a foil lined baking sheet.

Season with salt and pepper and cook for about 15 minutes to 20 minutes in a preheated oven at 375 degrees. Then add the bacon to the baking sheet and place back in the oven to cook together.

How to Store Leftovers:

Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
