BACON-WRAPPED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH CREAMY LEMON DIP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Trim the stem ends from the Brussels sprouts, and halve lengthwise. Put them in a medium bowl, and toss with 1 teaspoon salt.
• Lay the bacon strips next to each other on a work surface. Brush liberally with about 1/2 the maple syrup, then halve crosswise. Wrap each Brussels sprout half with 1 strip of bacon, syrup-side out, so the seam is on the flat side. Place the sprouts seam-side down on the parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet, leaving a bit of space between them. Brush them with a bit more syrup, and grind a little black pepper on top. Roast, rotating the baking sheet halfway through, until the bacon is crisp and the sprouts are tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix the mayonnaise, most of the lemon zest and all the lemon juice in a small serving dish. Sprinkle the remaining lemon zest on top. Put about 1/2 cup maple syrup in a second small serving dish, and stir in as much black pepper and crushed red pepper flakes as you like.
• Transfer the sprouts to a platter, and serve with the lemon mayonnaise and peppered maple syrup, for dipping.

GRILL BASKET BACON-WRAPPED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium indirect heat. For gas grills (with 3 or more burners), turn all the burners to medium-high heat; after about 15 minutes, turn off one of the middle burners and keep the remaining burners at medium high (you want the temperature to be 350 degrees F). For charcoal grills, bank one chimney starter-full of lit and ashed-over briquettes to one side of the grill. (Be sure to consult the grill manufacturer's guide for best results.)
• Add the Brussels sprouts to a medium bowl and toss with the olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cut each strip of bacon in half widthwise so you have 12 shorter pieces. Brush both sides of each piece of bacon with maple syrup, then season with a few grinds of pepper.
• Wrap each Brussels sprout in one piece of bacon and place seam-side down into a cavity of a 12-cavity meatball grill basket. Close and clasp the grill basket according to the manufacturer's directions. Place the grill basket onto the indirect heat section of the grill, making sure that the bacon seam is facing down. Cover the grill and cook until the bacon fat is rendered, the Brussels sprouts are tender and the bacon is crispy, 45 to 50 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix the mayonnaise with the lemon juice in a small bowl until smooth. Line a baking sheet with paper towels place a wire rack on top.
• Transfer the grill basket to the prepared wire rack. Let sit for 5 minutes, then unclasp and transfer the Brussels sprouts to a platter. Serve warm with the mayo mixture on the side.
