Ingredients:
- 2 lb. of Brussels sprouts, washed and halved lengthwise
- 1 heaping tablespoon of rendered pork fat
- 1 package of bacon ends
- ½ teaspoon of smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon of dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with the rendered pork lard and spices until evenly coated.
- Put the Brussels sprouts on a large cooking sheet, with the cut side facing down. Sprinkle the bacon ends evenly over the sheet.
- Roast the Brussels sprouts in the oven for 15 minutes, or until the cut bottoms of the sprouts begin to brown. Turn and let cook for another 5-15 minutes, until the bacon ends are crispy and the Brussels sprouts are browned on both sides.
