BBQ Brussel Sprouts

The perfect way to enjoy brussel sprouts in the summer- add some barbecue sauce to them 😉 Seriously these BBQ brussel sprouts are the perfect summer side dish for a cookout, barbecue, or a dinner when it’s too hot to eat outside (Aka Missouri right now haha). I love brussel sprouts in almost all forms but these hold a special place in my heart!

I am so glad brussel sprouts are more popular and trendy now- you can find them at a ton of different restaurants. But honestly I like to make them at home better because it can be hit or miss whenever you eat out. Plus who wants to spend $10 for a plate of like 5 brussel sprouts?! Making them at home ensures they’ll have the flavor you want and you’ll have enough for leftovers (maybe ;))

I am 100% team crispy brussel sprouts, nothing ruins them more than when they’re overcooked and soggy. Those are the type of brussel sprouts I remember from my childhood haha. I’d like to personally thank the person who discovered that you should cook brussel sprouts differently than the old way of boiling them until they were mush haha.

Ingredients

1 lb brussel sprouts

1 tsp olive oil

1/4 cup + 2 tbsp barbecue sauce ( I like this one)

1 tsp chili powder

1 tsp garlic powder

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 400F
  2. Cut the brussel sprouts in half then coat with 1 tsp of olive oil. Make sure the brussels are coated pretty evenly so the spices don’t clump together.
  3. Sprinkle to chili powder and garlic powder over the brussels then add 1/4 cup of barbecue sauce.
  4. Oil a baking sheet and add the brussel sprouts to it. Bake for 40 minutes, turning halfway through.
  5. Once the brussels are done, add more bbq sauce for flavor. I used 2 tbsp to get the flavor perfect for us!
