Bring a large pot of well salted water to a boil over high heat. Add brussels sprouts; cook until just tender, about 7 minutes. Drain.
Meanwhile, in a large deep skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp, about 5 minutes. Add butter; when foam subsides, add drained brussels sprouts; cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add chestnuts; season with salt and pepper. Add stock; simmer until heated through.
Serve.
