They are really good when cooked in an air fryer too. Halve them, toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, cook for about 15 mins at top temperature.

Takes a little longer, but prep them the same way and spread them on a cookie sheet, cut side down. Roast at 400 until they're as crispy as you like them. I like them almost black.

That's how I used to make them, even sometimes giving them a flip and broil at the end. Air fryer is almost as good but half the time, give it a shot if you haven't.

Looking into air fryers now. Very cool uses. I do something on the stovetop that is a little bit similar - small batches of fries, fish sticks etc. in my large nonstick skillet with a lid. You're basically making a little oven on top of the stove. I do the same with my enameled cast iron roaster.

Interesting, thanks. I wish I had a larger kitchen for more stuff like this!

Instant pot makes an air fryer lid! Its the best of both worlds!

hey. chicken wings doused in cheap hot sauce have their place too.

wingettes, tossed in heavily seasoned flour, fried, tossed in Frank's Red Hot with butter, cayenne & red pepper flakes, then smeared in homemade bleu cheese.

washed down with cheap, trailer park Pabst...

judge me. I accept my flaws.

This whole sub thread proves that brussel sprouts taste bad unless you add fat, bacon, salt, garlic or anything else to help choke them down.

They’re not for everyone that’s for sure. I steam them and add salt and they’re okay. Toss em in butter (fat) and like anything in life, the salt and fat combination wins.

I think this is why I wasn't a fan as a kid. Mama just boiled them. At least with broccoli we got cheez whiz. I love brussels sprouts now and have them often with a balsamic glaze.

one thing I've found is that black people dont like eatting vegetables.. no idea why.

Inner city blacks not southern country blacks. It's because produce in the inner city is shit. Go to Louisiana, Mississippi, Georgia, etc and find a black owned and operated diner and you will have the best meal of your life.

i'm scandinavian. We don't like them either. Vikings don't eat fresh food in the winter. It aint nat'ral. You need vitamin C, go eat some lingonberry jam.

I used to hate brussels spouts, but it was because they'd been cooked to death. Halved and saute'd in a cast iron (steel works, but I like the sear this gives) with bacon grease, minced garlic and a bit of finely diced yellow onion. Salt. Stop while it's firm. 3-5 minutes? I've never timed it, but it doesn't take long.

And about the above, he's not talking about food. Since he can't talk about it, he's using a metaphor for how just because people say things, doesn't mean they're true. Brussel sprouts = BS.

I think both of these parents have been pretty clear to CNN that they're disgusted with their son's behavior and the pickle he's got his ass into... just thankful he's alive. But CNN keeps taking a run at it, and it sure is funny to watch Anderson and Lemon glitch out about it. I think this Jake guy might be the dead horse that finally ends the summer of thug martyrdom. How much more ridiculous can it get to defend this guy?
