This is a great side dish to serve with any grilled meat item or other vegetable dishes. I get many requests for this when catering. People who normally don't like Brussels sprouts love these!

These Brussels sprouts were delicious! I loved the combination of the bacon, balsamic vinegar, and honey. The sprouts were cooked perfectly and had a nice caramelized flavor. I will definitely be making these again.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding some more spices or herbs next time.

The Brussels sprouts were a bit too firm for my liking. I would recommend cooking them for a few minutes longer next time.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less balsamic vinegar or honey next time.
