One of the best parts of owning a grill is the ability to use it to prepare food for your friends and family.

Often, the grill will become a natural meeting place, as the flavors of the food waft through the party.

However, it can be difficult to know what recipes you should try cooking on your grill. To help provide you with some inspiration for your next meal, let’s look at five of the best recipes that use grilled bacon.

1. Candied Bacon Cinnamon Roll

Whether you want to use it as a snack, or as a tasty breakfast item, you will enjoy this delicious candied bacon cinnamon roll.

Let’s take a look at how it’s made. First, you need to place the bacon onto the grill and brush it lightly with maple syrup.

Next, sprinkle the bacon with a quarter cup of brown sugar and move it to a roasting pan. Leave the bacon in the roasting pan for 10 to 15 minutes, or until it’s browned.

Next, place the cinnamon roll dough onto the grill in long, thin strips. Make sure to leave plenty of space between each line of dough.

Alternatively, you can drizzle some left-over maple sauce over the rolls, to give them more flavor.

Combine all these ingredients together to make the sauce. The next step is to wrap the bacon around the pieces of chicken.
