Tools To Help
Sharp Knife

Reach for a rimmed baking sheet. It is important that the Brussels sprouts are in a single layer. Otherwise they will not bake up evenly in the recipe.
Helpful Tips for Success
Prep Brussels Sprouts
Rinse the Brussels sprouts under cold running water to remove any dirt or debris. Pat them dry with a paper towel. Cut off the stem end of each Brussels sprout and remove any wilted or yellowed outer leaves. Then slice in half for the recipe.
Mix up the Sauce
Make sure to mix up the sauce mixture in a small bowl. That way you get an even coating of flavor on the sprouts.
Variations to Brussels Sprouts Recipe
Spices
So I went simple but you can add in extra spices to enhance the flavor if you would like. Feel free to use any spices you enjoy when cooking your Brussels sprouts.
Shave Sprouts
Use a shaver and shave your sprouts instead of slicing in half. This will create a whole new texture to the sprouts. The cook time will be shorter, once they are browned up then toss with sauce and cook an additional few minutes.
Spice Factor
Use any type of buffalo sauce as you would like. You can reach for mild or hot. It is up to you on spice factor.
