Slice meat if desired. Place on a warmed platter and keep warm while preparing sauce.
Combine 1 package blueberries, butter, thyme and sugar in a medium skillet or saucepan.
Cook over medium-high heat 2 to 3 minutes, stirring and pressing berries to release juices until sauce starts to thicken.
Stir in remaining berries and bring to a simmer.
Add brandy; remove from heat.
Immediately light with a long handle match or lighter. Swirl and pour berries over meat while flames die down. (For safety, do not pour brandy directly from bottle.)
