Clean and oil the grates.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Season the Asparagus<\/strong>: Trim the woody ends from the asparagus and place on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt, black pepper, and squeeze lemon juice over the top. Toss to coat evenly.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Wrap<\/strong>: Divide the asparagus stalks into 6 equal bundles (<em>around 4\u20136 spears per bundle, depending on the thickness of the asparagus<\/em>). Wrap a strip of bacon around each bundle, overlapping as little as possible.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Grill<\/strong>: Place bundles on the grill with the seam-side down. Grill for about 5 minutes per side, rotating with tongs until the bacon is crisp and the asparagus is tender. Keep the lid closed for even cooking but stand by to watch for flare-ups.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Rest &amp; Serve<\/strong>: Finish with another squeeze of fresh lemon juice and serve immediately.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure

The trick isn\u2019t just slapping bacon around vegetables \u2013 it\u2019s about balancing cooking times on the grill so the asparagus gets tender while the bacon gets crisp. When asparagus hits a hot grill, its natural sweetness intensifies.
