Brussels & Bacon Skewers

 

16 Brussels sprouts

8 slices bacon

2 T. olive oil

1/4 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. garlic pepper

1 T. brown sugar

8 skewers

 

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, brown sugar, salt, and garlic pepper. Slice the Brussels sprouts in half lengthwise. Stick the end of a piece of bacon through the skewer, add a Brussels sprout half, and fold the bacon back over the Brussels sprout and onto the skewer. Repeat 3 more times, ending with bacon. Brush olive oil and spices on both sides of the skewers. Bring grill to 350°F. Place skewers on grill and grill for 5 minutes on each side or until the bacon is crispy and Brussels sprouts charred.
