Ingredients

1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup thick steak sauce
1/2 cup olive oil
2 tablespoon honey
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper
8 (1/2-inch) eggplant slices, purged with salt
1 cup grated Parmesan
3 tablespoons chopped parsley, optional

Directions

In a small bowl whisk together the Worcestershire, steak sauce, olive oil, honey, and apple cider vinegar. Season with salt and pepper.

Pat your eggplant dry with paper towels. With a pastry brush apply the sauce to both sides of the eggplant. Place eggplant rounds onto a sheet tray fitted with a rack. Place the tray under the broiler for until eggplant is nicely browned, approximately 2 minutes. Turn slices over and place back under broiler to brown the other side. Generously sprinkle freshly grated Parmesan over all of the slices. Place back under the broiler for 1 minute to nicely brown the cheese. Serve plain or sprinkle with freshly chopped herbs.

Alton How Could You?
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I could not stomach this recipe it was just bad...I tried grilling it to add/change flavor and it was still bad. Not one for... the books!!Read more

Not very good, but not sure why
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

The sauce tastes pretty good, but the eggplant had an unpleasant taste (yes, I purged it). Maybe it was too late in the... season, or maybe it was because the eggplant I used was female, when AB recommends male ones in the show (I didn't remember that part while shopping). Maybe that would have made a difference, or maybe it wouldn't. I might try this one more time with smaller eggplants earlier in the season. Or maybe not.Read more

There are a hundred thousand ways to cook an eggplant....but this is not one of them.
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

Normally Alton Brown gives great recipes but this one is just horrible. I tried it many times but it always left a bad taste... in my mouth. I love eggplant but I did not love this. There is an Islamic proverb that says that "A woman who does not know how to prepare eggplant 101 different ways is not yet prepared for marriage." and I believe that Alton has to do another eggplant show because this one just didn't cut it.

Kinda salty as is.
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I liked it alot. A little salty for my taste as is. That's easy to remedy though. The given cook times weren't accurate... for my oven. Again, easily remedied. I put extra parmesan on the top and broiled it as if I was making Parmesan crisps. It gave it a very good crunch on the top.Read more
