Photos and Recipe By Melanie Hutti; Gypsy Hill Photography
I love a side dish that can be paired with either a vegetable-centered meal or as an accent to a beautiful cut of meat. Brussel sprouts, with their charred, crunchy goodness, master double duty, especially when wrapped in bacon. When cooked on a grill, the drippings can even be caught to season another dish.
To prepare the Brussels, slice off the tough stem from the end. You can now either slice each Brussel in half, to ensure complete cooking on the grill, or par-cook by steaming for 5-8 minutes, depending on the size of the sprouts.

After grilling, these can be brushed with a balsamic glaze, topped with a parmesan and Italian herb blend, or simply enjoyed solo with their bacon-wrapped goodness.
