Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Brussels sprouts trimmed and halved
- 8 slices bacon
- 1 tbsp BBQ rub
- 2 tbsp balsamic glaze
Instructions
- Toss halved Brussels sprouts with BBQ rub and maple syrup in a large bowl.
- Cook diced bacon in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes until crispy.
- Add seasoned sprouts to skillet, arranging cut-side down. Sear for 4-5 minutes.
- Add skillet to a 225F smoker, cooking sprouts and bacon for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Drizzle with balsamic glaze and sprinkle with extra BBQ rub before serving.
Notes
- Substitutions: While bacon is always best IMO, of course feel free to use turkey bacon instead of remove it altogether.
- Caramelization: For extra caramelization, sear the Brussels in the skillet for a couple of extra minutes before transferring to the smoker.
