Traeger Grilled Brussels Sprouts

Step 1

Cook the bacon on the stovetop until it is crispy. Reserve the grease, and chop up the bacon into small pieces.

Step 2

Prep the sprouts by washing and trimming off the dry end, if necessary, and removing any dried leaves from the outside. Cut them in half, and set aside.

Step 3

Put about 1/4 cup of bacon grease in the bottom of a cast-iron pan, and heat over medium-high heat. Season the sprouts with salt and pepper.

Step 4

When the grease is hot, place the sprouts in, cut side down, and let brown for 3-4 minutes.

Step 5

Preheat your grill to 350-375°.

Step 6

Place the browned sprouts and the chopped bacon into a grill-safe pan (I used an enameled cast iron baking dish. If you use cast iron I suggest preheating it in the grill first.)

Step 7

Cook for 20 minutes on the grill, and serve immediately.
