Cook the bacon in a small skillet over medium heat until crispy. Drain on a paper towel and reserve the bacon fat.
3 slices thick cut bacon
Preheat oven to 425°F degrees.
Toss the Brussel sprouts with 2 tablespoons of the reserved bacon fat on a baking sheet. Discard the remaining fat or save for future uses.
12 ounces frozen Brussel Sprouts
Season with the salt and pepper, and make sure they are in a single layer.
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Roast for 15-20 minutes, flipping sprouts over halfway through.
While the sprouts are roasting, make the glaze. Melt the butter in the same skillet as you cooked the bacon.
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Add the garlic, honey, vinegar, and dijon. Whisk to combine.
1 clove garlic, 2 teaspoons honey, 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar, 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
Once the brussels are ready, add them along with the cooked bacon, to the skillet and stir to coat, serve immediately.

We use frozen Brussel Sprouts but you can use fresh if you like.
You’ll want to make sure that you flip your Brussel Sprouts halfway through baking for an even cook and so one side doesn’t burn.
You can easily double this great recipe to make for larger gatherings.
We also use baby Brussel Sprouts for the best flavor. If you cannot find them, regular sized will work, cooking time will just need to be a little longer.
