Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Place brussels sprouts on a sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss well. Spread out in a single layer, cut side down. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping after 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add bacon and cook until crisp. Drain all but 1 tablespoon of bacon grease from the skillet, leaving the bacon in the pan.
