For some reason, I was craving some asparagus so I asked my husband to buy me a bunch when he went the other day. I have a new grill pan here that I have to review so I thought of grilling these babies. I normally bake it but since it is summer, mine as well cook it outside.
I was a little worried that the asparagus will dry out in the grill but it was still very juicy and the smokiness flavor really rock this dish.
I am glad there is still an abundant supply of asparagus from the store. I can't wait to start harvesting mine from the backyard, few more years and I will have some.
I was gonna make mashed potatoes but since I am grilling outside, I decided to make potato wedges sand grilled them too. I seasoned them with brown sugar bourbon Grillmate spices mix.
I normally do single asparagus when I bake it but since I am grilling, I put three, it was perfect. Just a little tip for flavoring the asparagus, before you roll the bacon, add some dill, it made the asparagus so flavorfull.
I was worried that I cut the potatoes a little thicker so I pan-fried them for few minutes before putting it on the grill.
Both the potatoes and the asparagus turn out delicious. A lot of fat from the bacon was rendered and it almost burn it even on a very low heat setting. I had to turn it off and put foil under the grill pan to stop the flame.
I really underestimated the fats that will come out from the bacon. I initially thought of laying aluminum foil under the grill pan but though I could clean it easy. WRONG!! So my new grill pan has a burned part that I am trying to remove. I use to be able to remove burn stuff like this with vinegar but it did not work this time. Any tips on how to efficiently remove it with using an abrasive cleaning material?
Anyway, I like this grill pan because it is heavy duty, you can really utilize it in grilling. You can buy this grill pan directly at Cavetools website or via Amazon. You can use this Cave Tools Coupon Code GRILLPAN15 for a 15% Off savings. For grilling master out there, this is a must have. You can use it in preparing bacon and eggs for breakfast which reminds me that this would be great when camping. You can use it to grill your veggies, steaks, chicken, and pork. Aside from the burning issue which is a mistake on my part, I really love this pan.

I have had bacon wrapped asparagus in restaurants but I have never tried to make it. I am definitely going to try this.
I love asparagus. Actually my whole family does but I have yet to make bacon wrapped asparagus. Great idea! Love the look of this pan. Is it hard to clean? We have a couple of things we use but none of them look like this actually.
I love my veggies! But they have never looked this good! This is going to be a huge hit at barbecues all summer long.
Yum, this asparagus looks amazing. I should try to make some for my family. Seeing asparagus made me remember that my grandmother always grew asparagus in her garden. She would go outside and pick some whenever she wanted to make asparagus. Fresh was always the best.
