Cut into 1 ¼ -inch pieces
Mozzarella cheese 12
Cut into 1-inch pieces, ¼ inch thick
Cherry tomatoes 6
Cut in half

Balsamic vinegar ¼ cup

4 – 5 inch toothpicks 12
soaked in water for 15 minutes

Toss the olive oil and Brussel sprouts together. Place om a prepared baking sheet and roast in a 375ºF oven until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool until easy to handle. Cut in half.
While the Brussel sprouts are roasting, heat the cooking oil in a medium pan on medium. Add the tocino pieces and cook for about 2 minutes on each side. Remove the pieces from the pan and set aside.
To assemble the sliders, place a top half of a Brussel sprout onto the skewer. Next add a piece of mozzarella, followed by a Tocino piece, then half a cherry tomato, and the bottom half of the Brussel sprout, onto the skewer.
Heat the barbecue to about 350ºF. Place the skewers on a prepared grill and grill for about 3 minutes, flipping over once half way through or until the cheese is softened. Remove from the grill onto a plate and drizzle with balsamic vinegar.
