Grill The Salad
- Preheat the Big Green Egg to 425-450F with a 10-10.5” cast iron pan on the grate.
- When hot, add the bacon and cook until crispy. Remove from the pan, leaving the bacon drippings.
- Add in the shallots and Brussels sprouts, stirring to coat & cook for 8-12 minutes or until softened and some parts are caramelized. Stir often to prevent sticking.
