Blackstone Bacon Cranberry Brussel Sprouts
Ever since making Blackstone Bacon Cranberry Brussel Sprouts, my serious love of brussel sprouts has only grown and grown đŸ™‚
Such a delicious and healthy side dish to make on the griddle!
Well I mean there’s bacon, yes… but in my mind the healthiness of the brussel sprouts cancels out the bacon đŸ˜‰
It’s got a great sweet and savory combo of flavors that will go great with any dinner.
Or enjoy it as a simple lunch like we did đŸ™‚
How to make Blackstone Bacon Cranberry Brussel Sprouts
You’ll need a pound of brussels, bacon, an onion, dried cranberries, and goat cheese.
Oh, and also some honey… maybe I was too excited for this dish and I forgot to include it in the pic đŸ˜‰
You could also use feta in place of the goat cheese if preferred.
First, cut the bacon with kitchen scissors, about 6 to 8 slices.
And shave or thinly slice the brussels.
Then put the other ingredients on a tray to carry out all at once to your Blackstone Griddle or flat top grill.
Preheat the griddle to medium heat for a few minutes.
Then add the pieces of bacon.
Use the hibachi spatulas to separate the bacon and flip and turn it a few times.
After the bacon cooks for 3 to 4 minutes, add a diced onion.
Also the sliced brussels, kosher salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes.
Then use your hibachi spatulas to flip and turn them a few times for 6 to 8 minutes.
Next add 2 to 3 tablespoons honey and 1/3 cup of dried cranberries.
Cook just another minute or 2 on the griddle.
Finally add goat cheese crumbles to top Blackstone Bacon Cranberry Brussel Sprouts!
Or feta cheese works too đŸ™‚
I like to put everything back onto the same tray I used to carry the ingredients outside.
Serve either warm or at room temperature.
