½poundof bacon,cut into 1″ pieces
1½cuponion,chopped
4clovesof garlic,chopped

Method
Begin by choosing a large heavy pan with a tight fitting lid. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil in pan and render bacon over medium heat. Remove bacon when crisped and pour fat into container to reserve.
Add chopped onion and carrots to the pan and sautée for about 10 minutes or until onions become translucent. Add small amounts of the bacon renderings as needed.
Add Brussels sprouts. Cook to lightly brown, stirring occasionally to achieve an even color. Add garlic and return the crisped bacon to the pot, stirring to combine. Cook for a minute to bloom the garlic.
Add enough chicken stock to just cover the sprouts. Place lid on pot, reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
