I swore up, down, and sideways that I did not like brussel sprouts but my husband loves them. I normally make frozen ones in the butter sauce just for him because he is the only one that likes them. I figured I would try making fresh brussel sprouts for a change. I read all the reviews saying to try these if you think you don't like them, and they were right; I loved them! Anything cooked in bacon fat usually tastes pretty good and these are no exception. Yum!

I'm not a brussel sprout girl although this was AMAZING!!! I didn't have Pancetta so I substituted thick maple bacon. I didn't have potatoes so it wasn't as hearty as it should of been...but I did add some capers and strawberry raisins! It was light and delightful =!

I've been making brussel sprouts with pancetta for years and it's always a request from the family. I tried this and it was a big hit! I added extra shallots and right before I put it in the oven I added some garlic gloves. It was amazing!!!

My sister-in-law made it without the potatoes and lemon. When she directed me to the website, I found that it called for potatoes. I had sweet potatoes on hand and used those. Yum!!

Wow - This is amazing!

I did the whole recsipe in a small roasting pan which I think was important. It cause the sprout, potato mix to be a couple of layers deep instead of flat, and I think that helped keep most of the sprouts and potatos from drying out.

I recommend cutting the lemon by half as the savory flavor of the rosted sprouts are really the star of the show and too much lemon can over power that. You can always add more lemon if it suits your taste, but you can never take it out if you over did it.

The Pancetta is important. I guess you could substitute bacon or leave it out all together, but the pancetta adds the perfect flavor.

I recentely changed my four stars to five stars after making this recipe a second time. It was delicious. The first time I burned the sprouts because the recipe was not specific on cooking time....but second time around I kept a close watch on them and they turned out perfect. thanks Bobby!

Something didn't go right with mine, the lemon was so overpowering it made the dish barely eatable..used the correct amount, fresh organic lemon...don't know...I'd say cut back on it drastically. Maybe I'll try his pomegranate version instead.
