- Wash your asparagus or soak with a good fruit and veggie soak and pat dry.You want to make sure that you get it as dry as possible to help it cook evenly.
- Snap off the ends, and cut the asparagus stems into 3 pieces each.Bundle 3 pieces of your chopped asparagus together and wrap with a slice of bacon. Repeat with the remaining asparagus.
- Light your grill and allow it to heat to 350 degrees (you can do this on a grill pan on your stove or using a gas or charcoal grill outside).Carefully place your bacon wrapped asparagus on the center of your grill (low to the coals if you are grilling outside) for 2 minutes.
- Turn it frequently using tongs for about 2 minutes.Remove the asparagus to a higher grill plate or outer edge away from the coals, and continue to cook, with the lid closed or your pan covered, for 18-20 minutes, until the bacon is crispy.
- You'll want to turn your asparagus frequently (every few minutes) to make sure that it cooks evenly and you don't get any burned spots.Remove your bacon wrapped asparagus from the grill and serve immediately.
