Garlicky Grilled Brussels Sprouts {Sous Vide}
The trick to this recipe is getting the sprouts tender BEFORE you place them on the grill. If you try to throw Brussels sprouts directly onto the grill, uncooked, they’d end up too crunch on the inside and completely charred on the outside. Using the sous vide method is the perfect way to prep these green gems to be finished on the grill.
Dovetaiing Tip: Cook an additional 1 1/2 pound brussels sprouts to use in Brussels Sprouts with bacon and walnuts on day 4.
