Rinse brussels sprouts and dry with a dry kitchen towel. Slice off the stem of each sprout with a sharp knife. Slice each sprout in half (if small) or into quarters (if large). You want bite-size pieces.

On a sheet pan with a rim, combine the sliced brussels sprouts, chopped bacon, olive oil, and salt. Toss gently with your hands to ensure the sprouts are coated with olive oil. Spread in a single layer on the sheet pan.
