Authentic Brussel Sprouts

[RobertP]

I've always liked Brussel sprouts as we had them often growing up. Mom boiled them as did MrsP when she cooked them for me (she didn't like them) and of course there is a certain bitterness to the taste which doesn't appeal to everyone. Last weekend we went to the DIL's birthday dinner at a steakhouse in town. She ordered Brussel sprouts as a table side for me and herself as we were the only ones there who like them. The restaurant roasted the sprouts, the first time I had eaten them prepared that way, and I must say they were delicious! Sweet and smoky flavor completely opposite of boiled prep. Even MrsP had a serving and we're going to try them that way at home.

My husband roasts them for us. They are delicious but then I love brussel sprouts.

Brussel sprouts are awesome every way EXCEPT boiled to death, which seems to be the only way folks used to cook them. They are terrific roasted and it's super easy to do.

I love sprouts around Christmas. I like them par boiled then fried on the pan with butter Italian Pancetta & Chestnuts. I find it a delicious accompaniment to turkey for Christmas dinner.
