Preparation
- Step 1
Heat oven to 400 degrees. Trim bottom of brussels sprouts, and slice each in half top to bottom. Heat oil in cast-iron pan over medium-high heat until it shimmers; put sprouts cut side down in one layer in pan. Put in garlic, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Step 2
Cook, undisturbed, until sprouts begin to brown on bottom, and transfer to oven. Roast, shaking pan every 5 minutes, until sprouts are quite brown and tender, about 10 to 20 minutes.
- Step 3
Taste, and add more salt and pepper if necessary. Stir in balsamic vinegar, and serve hot or warm.

Can I make this today to serve tomorrow at Thanksgiving? Oven gets too full at zero hour...
I think I use Ina Garten's recipe. Much easier and less oil. Just halve the brussel sprouts and toss them in a tablespoon and a half of olive oil and roast at 450 degrees.
Since reading all of the comments here, we've taken another look at the recipe and adjusted it. 10-20 minutes @ 400 degrees with a few shakes of the pan in between. I hope this change yields better results for all of you!
So the garlic cloves go in whole?
I added some blue cheese, which worked OK. Added bacon too. Left in the oven for 10 minutes. They came out a bit mushy which might have been because they spent too much on top of the stove. I think I also should have removed more of the outer leaves. I used lemon balsamic vinegar.
Easy to prepare, works every time. I heated my pan in the oven while preparing sprouts, oiled Brussels, seasoned and put in hot pan cut side down.... Baked until crispy done... Yummy!
