SAVORY BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH SMOKED SAUSAGE
I admit I hated them as a kid too. I was at deer camp a few years ago and one of my uncles brought a bunch he had from the farmers market. Knowing my culinary aptitude, he tossed the bag at me and said "see what you can do with these" This being a hunting camp, the pressure was on. I couldn't make some fancy dish, so I tried to keep it simple and came up with this. You can use any smoked sausage you like, I prefer a Portuguese linguisa, but you can use kielbasa, bacon or ham as well. You can omit the crushed red pepper if you don't like a bit of heat. Can be served as a side dish or a main course. This is the only way to eat brussel sprouts IMO.

Steps:
- Sauté sausage in a large sauté pan over medium heat until it starts to get some color. Remove from pan but do not discard the drippings. Leave the drippings in the pan.
- To the pan add the oil/butter, garlic, red pepper, carrot, and brussels sprouts. Sauté over medium heat until the sprouts begin to brown. Add the cooked sausage back to the pan. Toss to mix.
- Deglaze pan with the stock, continuing to cook until the liquid in the pan is almost gone. Remove from heat and serve while hot.
GRILLED SAVORY BRUSSELS SPROUTS
I LOVE brussels sprouts and this is a simple and yummy way to prepare them during the warm months. My friend Richard makes grilled cabbage with just butter and seasoning salt and this recipe is a twist of his masterpiece. Plan 5 brussels sprouts for each person.

Steps:
- Cut brussels sprouts in half.
- Place sprouts in the middle of a large piece of aluminum foil (to make a packet for grilling). I usually put 10 sprouts in each packet.
- Dot butter over the sprouts, then sprinkle with the seasoning salt, bacon and garlic powder.
- Drizzle small amount of olive oil over the top and close up the foil packet (making sure you pull up all of the sides so that the butter does not leak out during cooking).
- Grill packets for 10 minutes over medium-high heat.
- After cooking is complete, place the veggies in a bowl and mix them up so that the butter/flavorings coat all the tasty brussels sprouts.
