Good, but could use seasoning & Definitely grilled is how I recommend... I did the skillet, and it was too hard to get the bacon to get crispy, without over cooking shrimp. Family liked it a lot, will do again with a few adjustments.

I did this a little different...I pre-cooked the bacon a little and then cooked them on the grill. I'm sure it would be good and less trouble cooking it in the skillet, but it was fabulous on the grill! Made for your win in Football Tag.
