Roasted Brussels Sprouts on the Big Easy

Note: This recipe was developed using the Char-Broil Big Easy Oil-Less Fryer. If you are cooking using the Char-Broil Smoker-Roaster Grill you should cook with the lid open and the temperature set to High. You might also need to adjust the cooking time.

I use my Char-Broil Big Easy for a lot more than cooking ribs, chicken wings, turkey. I also use it to make side dishes, like these roasted Brussels sprouts. First, they’re very flavorful. Second, they’re easy (and second-and-a-half, they cook up fast). And third, they free up the oven in the house if I’m doing a large cook for the holidays. Cooking on the Big Easy is always a win-win, whether you’re cooking the main dish or a side.

Roasted Brussels Sprouts on the Big Easy

Great Roasted Flavor In Every Bite

I didn’t pre-cook the sprouts at all. Just drizzled and seasoned them, skewered them, and then cooked them. Done. I used the kabob skewers available from Char-Broil but you could also just place the sprouts in the standard Big Easy basket (or get more on with the optional bunk basket). These roasted Brussels sprouts on the Char-Broil Big Easy came out great!

It’s always a good idea to keep a few spare grease trays on hand for your Char-Broil Big Easy.

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Wash sprouts. Remove any large stems and loose leaves.
  • Place sprouts into a bowl and drizzle with a bit of olive oil.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Thread sprouts onto skewers and lower into a pre-lit Big Easy.
  • Cook for approximately 20 minutes or until sprouts begin to char and are mostly tender when poked with a toothpick (check the larger ones).
  • Sprinkled with a bit more salt and pepper if desired and serve immediately. (A little crunched cooked bacon over the sprouts doesn’t hurt either!)

Spicy Chicken Wings with Apple Onion Dip

If you follow this blog at all you know that I’m a huge fan of chicken wings, and in particular, wings that are cooked on the Char-Broil The Big Easy TRU-Infrared Oil-less Turkey Fryer. I made a simple modification to our Big Easy that lets me cook a big batch of wings at once. They take less than an hour and always come out fantastic, like these spicy chicken wings with apple onion dip. Of course you can cook your wings using whatever you have, from a gas grill to a deep fryer to a convection oven!

Spicy Chicken Wings with Apple Onion Dip

These spicy chicken wings with apple onion dip have a wonderful savory flavor. The apple onion dip is fantastic, and would also work great for dipping chips, crackers, vegetables… you name it.

Also try my Teriyaki wings.
