  1. Your recipe is pretty similar to our favorite way to eat brussel sprouts. Here is what we do:

    Sauteed Brussels Sprouts with Bacon

    6 ounces bacon, chopped
    1 lb brussels sprouts
    Salt and freshly ground pepper
    1 Tbsp. lemon juice
    1 Tbsp. thyme

    Put the bacon in a large skillet over medium high heat. When it starts to sizzle, reduce the heat to medium and cook until crisp and the fat is rendered, 5 to 10 minutes. Meanwhile, trim the hard edge of the stem from the Brussels sprouts, then cut them into quarters.

    Add the sprouts and 1/4 cup water to the pan with the bacon; sprinkle with salt and pepper, turn the heat to medium, and cover. Cook, undisturbed, until nearly tender, about 5 minutes.

    When the sprouts are ready, uncover and raise the heat back to medium-high. Cook, stirring occasionally, until any remaining water evaporates and the sprouts are fully tender, another 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice and thyme and serve.

  3. Pour some Balsamic Vinegar on it as well, prior to roasting, and that adds a whole new dimension of flavor!

  4. I do this stovetop in my cast iron skillet and they get nicely browned. I use coconut oil instead of the lard though. Great recipe!
