Trim the stems off of the Brussels Sprouts and cut them in half. Put them in a large bowl. Add smashed garlic cloves.
Drizzle with bacon drippings or oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mix as you sprinkle & drizzle to ensure it all gets evenly coated.
Pour out the mixture evenly on to the baking sheet(s). Bake for 20-25 minutes. They should be browned and ready to eat as soon as you take them out of the oven!
