With a crisp golden exterior and a sticky, sweet-and-spicy glaze, these Brussels sprouts can’t be beat. Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Tabasco Honey Glaze can be served as a Thanksgiving side or with any fall meal.
Only 4 Ingredients
Only 4 ingredients are needed and you won’t believe how great a simple glaze of honey and Tabasco sauce tastes.
I love seeing Brussels sprouts in the store this time of year. A lot of people claim to hate Brussels sprouts and you’d be hard pressed to find a more controversial vegetable. But it’s my belief that many of the people who say they dislike Brussels sprouts haven’t really tried them. Cooked right, they can taste truly magnificent and there’s nothing like bacon, honey, and tabasco to flavor them up!
Just a few ingredients are needed to make these super flavorful roasted Brussels sprouts. Roasting them at a high temperature gets them wonderfully caramelized and there’s really no need to add much to them.
Partially Pre-Cook Bacon
The bacon needs to be precooked just a bit or it won’t get crispy by the time the Brussels sprouts are done.
If you wanted to make this vegetarian, leave out the bacon and use extra oil.

They were yummy. Glad I saw this to make again.
I’ve made this recipe twice, and it is flawless. So yummy that even my 19-year-old had seconds!
WoW! It’s always nice when your teenager wants seconds on veggies! 🙂
I love this recipe, I really crave brussel sprouts right now, although I already had some roasted ones this week. Pinned and will make them soon!!!
Mmmmm, these roasted brussels sprouts look so delicious. And tabasco and honey sounds like an incredible combo.
sweet Bacon and Tabasco Honey Glaze, that is amazing for just few ingredients
I tried telling my mom that Brussels sprouts are trendy right now, and the look she gave me was pretty priceless (I think she’s only had them boiled)! But roasted Brussels are SO good, and I can only imagine how wonderful these are with bacon and that honey glaze. Delicious!
