This is a recipe we got from Scotts Dad Jack – an amazingly great cook who I am forever grateful to because he taught my se*y husband how to cook GREAT food and to be an adventurous eater.
Its a tasty, rich and perfect side dish and we eat it all the time. We love brussel sprouts now that we have learned how to cook them in an amazing way…with bacon. By the way, if you want to be in heaven – try Nueske’s smoked Bacon from Wisconsin – it is freaking amazing. Click this link to find out where to get some
