Notes
- Recipe tips.
- Grilling directions:
- Prep ahead of time. Wrap the asparagus with bacon a day in advance, cover it with plastic wrap, and keep it refrigerated. Add the butter sauce before baking.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 1-2 days. Reheat in a 375°F oven.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 1-2 days. Reheat in a 375°F oven.
- Bend the asparagus stalk near the bottom. It will naturally snap at the point where the tough, woody part ends, or use a knife to cut 1-2 inches off the bottom.
- Use regular-cut bacon as thicker slices will not cook all the way.
- After the bundles have cooked use the oven broiler to get crispier bacon.
- Allow the wrapped asparagus to marinate in the sauce for 3-5 minutes. Heat the grill to 400-450ºF.
- Place the bacon-wrapped asparagus bundles directly on the grill grates.
- Close the grill lid and cook for 5-8 minutes per side, or until the bacon is crisp and the asparagus is tender.
