When it is starting to leave a brown layer on the bottom, deglaze the pan with half of the Beer (4 Tbsp) and scrape it all up.

step 3

Once the liquid has evaporated and the bacon crisps again, deglaze the pan with the rest of the Beer (4 Tbsp) and add in the Brussels Sprouts (5 cups). Scrape up the rest of the brown bits and stir it all together.

Meanwhile, salt the boiling pasta water and cook the Rigatoni (1 lb) until tender, for about 8 minutes.

While the pasta cooks, take 1/2 a cup of the cooking water and pour it into the pan of bacon and brussel sprouts. Add in the Parmesan Cheese (1/2 cup) and let it all melt in and emulsify with the liquids.
