Ingredients

  • 1 ½ pounds uniformly sized Brussels sprouts
  • ½ pound bacon, chopped
  • 1-2 Tablespoons Hey Grill Hey Sweet Rub
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 Tablespoons balsamic glaze optional

Instructions

  • Prepare Brussels sprouts. Remove the stems from the Brussels sprouts. Cut them in half lengthwise, remove any any excess leaves or brown spots.
    1 ½ pounds uniformly sized Brussels sprouts
  • Drizzle with oil. Place the Brussels sprouts on a large baking sheet, and drizzle them lightly with olive oil to allow the rub to stick to them.
    1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • Add bacon. Next, and your chopped bacon to the baking pan, and sprinkle Brussels sprouts and bacon with Sweet Rub.
    ½ pound bacon,, 1-2 Tablespoons Hey Grill Hey Sweet Rub
  • Preheat grill. Set your grill for medium-high heat, around 375 degrees F.
  • Cook in skillet. Either on your grill or stove top, preheat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Place your bacon in the skillet and cook for 3-5 minutes or until the fat is rendered and the edges have started to turn golden brown and crisp.
  • Make foil packet. Lay out a large sheet of heavy duty aluminum foil. Transfer the Brussels sprouts and bacon to the foil. Create a packet by sealing the sides and top tightly. For crispy bacon and more firm sprouts, poke several holes on the top of the pouch with a fork.
    2 Tablespoons balsamic glaze
  • Grill packet. Place the foil packet on the grill and grill for 20-25 minutes. Use two tongs to shake the packet 2-3 times while grilling to mix the contents of the packet. Flip the packet after 10 minutes (this is where it's extremely important that you seal the packet well)!
  • Remove from foil and enjoy. Remove the foil packet from the grill, sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste, and serve.
