With me, this is a VERY popular recipe for asparagus. For those who like the bacon a little more 'done', try laying your bacon slices in a pan over med-low heat for a few minutes per side. The idea is to get the fat to render down a little bit, but NOT start the bacon to crisp up where you can't wrap it around the asparagus. (How long you personally 'pre-cook' it is a function of feel more that a fixed time.) Pull it off and cool the bacon between two pieces of paper towel for a minute or two. Then wrap your asparagus as usual. This pre-cooking technique renders out some of the fat prior to the bacon hitting the grill, resulting in a more crisp end product without reducing the veggie to mush.
