Soooo....

If you want the bacon crispy, at the very end, when it's almost completely cooked through, turn the heat up and let things catch fire for a bit. It'll crisp the bacon and give the asparagus a bit of a char on the outside without burning things completely.

Thank you!

Damn details. We're all so picky these days...

I was trying to make bacon wrapped asparagus on the bbq. Didn't work out so well. Any suggestions to get the bacon cooked without completely incinerating the asparagus?

I coat the asparagus lightly with olive oil.

Silly Cherny... Every thread on LoT is a bacon thread, eventually!

I slept fitfully, as well, but it's not my first day on the job. Good luck! Hope it's a slow introduction, sleepy girl!

I am planning on getting in at 8. It's very difficult to gauge the traffic out here in Utah, since it's either awesome or sucky in the morning, though generally sucky and worse with a wreck on the freeway. I've learned of alternate routes that I will investigate, though from what I understand it can be a 'six one way half-dozen the other' kind of situation.

This morning, I realized it was a waste to stay in bed when I could snuggle up with my cat and do the whole internet thing, since it'll be a little while before I feel comfortable to do much surfing at work.

Which reminds me: work was awesome today - though I'm exhausted. I'll try and write about it tomorrow.

Whoo!

I ended up grilling the asparagus (coated with olive oil and pepper) without bacon. Had a BLAT instead.

Yummy in the tummy.

Can't wait to hear all about the job Miss E!

Don't forget lemon juice! The tanginess is what makes the dish (I learned that from Dphile)
