Pretty underrated IMHO, what you think

give me a grill, some salt, some butter, maybe a bit of Parmesan and I'll eat em all day

Not under rated imho. I live in a freaking brussel sprout field.... or over looking one. I can't stand the smell, at the right time of year just before harvest when the wind is right our whole house smells like brussell sprouts. It makes me sick to my stomach. As a result, I can't eat them...
I do poach artichokes from a farmer down the road though.... He sends his kids to steal eggs from my chickens in response..... I put hard boiled eggs in the chicken coup once just to give them a little surprise after they cleaned me out a few too many times. He texted me.... "bastard, you freaked my wife out, I am pissing on the artichokes closest to your property as I type this". True story, that gets told every time the neighborhood gets together.
Thats my take on brussell sprouts. My wife loves them, and everyone says she makes the best ones.. Here is her recipe...
Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts
3 tablespoons good olive oil
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Cut off the brown ends of the Brussels sprouts and pull off any yellow outer leaves. Mix them in a bowl with the olive oil, salt and pepper. Pour them on a sheet pan and roast for 35 to 40 minutes, until crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. Shake the pan from time to time to brown the sprouts evenly. Sprinkle with more kosher salt ( I like these salty like French fries), and serve immediately.
ROAST THEM IN THE OVEN!!!
Trim and halve. Coat with Olive Oil, Kosher salt and cracked pepper.
400 degrees, 20 minutes or until browned a bit. YUM
