Grilled Asparagus



Since the start of the new year it has been extremely cold in the South. I have grilled about three times but have not updated the blog. I hope to do that in the next few days. One of the first grilling experiences was with friends and we grilled chicken and asparagus on the grill. I took a picture of the asparagus before placing them on the grill but forgot to take the "cooked" picture. They were great!

I marinaded the asparagus in:
3 tablespoons of bacon grease (previously saved)
2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon of salt
1 tablespoon of garlic powder
You can see that I wrapped two uncooked pieces of bacon around six shoots. I used two toothpicks to hold it all together.

Bacon always makes things better!
