Making this tonight watching football 🏈. I followed your directions but @ end sprinkled Cinnamon sugar mix over bacon. When baked it’s going to caramelize wonderfully. Tnx much
These were the best part of my Thanksgiving dinner. I had made them with green beans before but not asparagus. Added a little garlic and onion powder. Out of this world!!!
I had trouble wrapping the bacon in a nice fashion around the asparagus. Guess that will just take practice. I based it for about 25 minutes, and while the bacon was cooked just right, I found my asparagus was rather mushy. Again, Probably just a matter of practice and trial and error. Will definitely try again, but on the BBQ or smoker next time.
I have made this recipe over and over again. It is so incredibly easy and my kids, yes my KIDS, get so excited when I make this. I have to make a double recipe because everyone wants seconds. This is the BEST way to eat asparagus.
I followed this recipe exactly. However, with the oven temp and time as suggested, the bacon was severely undercooked (it’s a health risk to eat undercooked bacon). I had to lengthen the cooking time so much that the asparagus came out chewy in the middle and burnt on the ends. I would not recommend this recipe.
Sorry to hear that you had trouble with the recipe, Marelle. The timing has worked well for myself (and others) so I wished it would have been a hit for you too! I know it can be so disappointing to try a new recipe and it does not turn out for you.
Fantastic recipe! We loved the flavor. All I had was maple flavored bacon but the taste blended nicely. I would recommend using thicker asparagus if you can, so it doesn’t shrivel before the bacon cooks. Will make again!
Your ingredients do not call for salt, state that the bacon will be enough, yet your instructions do call for salting the asparagus and bacon. Which is the correct recipe?
Hi! I’m sorry to hear you had trouble with the recipe. I really can’t say how to modify it because this is how we’ve tested it and it worked great for us. The thickness of your asparagus will likely affect them cooking simultaneously, so try to pick thicker ones or add another one to the bundle. Also maybe for your oven, you’ll need to change to the higher rack. Hope this helps!
We absolutely loved it! Best wrapped asparagus recipe that I have tried. I ended up with very short stalks using the snap method (my personal favorite)to trim the asparagus ends and so only used one half piece of bacon on each bundle. Using the temp and timing in the recipe, my bundles turned out perfectly! Only drawback was that I didn’t have more asparagus to wrap:)
We love asparagus so I decided to try this recipe and fell in love this way of making them. Definitely no need for salt as the bacon added enough. I am going to add this to our Thanksgiving dinner. thank you!!

Hi Avery, it’s a simple typo in the instructions. Everything else is correct. We’ve fixed it. Enjoy!
The asparagus overcooked long before the bacon was ready. How can I modify this for next time?
