Roasted Brussels Sprouts

1 Hot Linguica Sausage Link (approx 7 oz) – Diced

1 lb. Brussels Sprouts – End trimmed and sliced in ½

1 Medium Onion – Sliced

2 Tbsp Bacon Fat

2 Garlic Cloves – Minced

1 tbsp Salt

½ tbsp Pepper

2 Cups Turkey Stock

In a large pan over low/medium heat add the sausage.  The goal is to cook it low and slow to render out the fat and make it crispy.  Mine took about 20 minutes.  Take sausage out and set aside.

Add in the sliced onion and cook about 3 minutes over medium/high heat.  Add in the bacon fat and brussels sprouts – sliced side down and cook about 5 minutes or until they are caramelized.  Add in the salt, pepper and turkey stock.  Cover and simmer about 20 minutes.  Remove lid, turn heat up to medium/high and cook about another 20 minutes or until all the liquid is gone.  Enjoy.
