Servings 6
Ingredients
- 1 lb Brussels Sprouts
- ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
- ½ cup butter
- 1½ cups Parmesan cheese finely grated
- salt and pepper to taste
- 3 tbsp balsamic glaze for serving
Instructions
- Preheat your smoker to 275-300°F.
- Add the butter, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper to the cast iron skillet. Place it on the smoker to let the butter melt, and the pan preheat for up to 30 minutes.
- Wash and dry the Brussels sprouts. Remove any shriveled leaves. Trim the stalk of the individual sprout down. Cut each sprout in half lengthwise.
- Remove the balsamic and butter mixture from the smoker, stir, and sprinkle 1 cup of Parmesan evenly over the top.
- Place the sprouts, cut side down onto the balsamic and butter mixture, pressing down slightly.
- Return the skillet to the smoker and cook for 30-60 minutes.
- Once you have a nice brown crust form on the bottom of the sprouts, and are able to to pierce them easily with a fork, they are done. Remove from the smoker and rest for 5 minutes.
- Place the sprouts in a serving bowl and sprinkle the remaining half cup of Parmesan cheese.
- Drizzle balsamic glaze evenly over the top of the Brussels sprouts. Serve warm.
