Griddled Brussels Sprouts

Bacon Mayo

Assembly

Method

Chipotle Cream Cheese

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chipotle Cream Cheese

    In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, chipotle peppers, lime juice, garlic powder, and salt. Use a hand mixer or spatula to blend the ingredients until smooth and creamy. Set aside for later use.

Griddled Brussels Sprouts

  1. 2

    Prepare the Brussels Sprouts

    Trim and halve the Brussels sprouts. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Brussels sprouts cut side down and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown and tender, flipping occasionally. Remove from heat and set aside.

Bacon Mayo

  1. 3

    Make the Bacon Mayo

    Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the skillet and place on paper towels to drain. Once cooled, crumble the bacon. In a bowl, mix the mayonnaise, crumbled bacon, and smoked paprika until well combined.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Assemble the Hammer of Thor

    Toast the buns lightly on a griddle. Spread a generous layer of chipotle cream cheese on the bottom half of each bun. Layer on the griddled Brussels sprouts, followed by a slice of pepper jack cheese. Top with a dollop of bacon mayo and place the top half of the bun on each. Serve immediately and enjoy the flavor explosion!
