Ingredients

  • 1 pound green beans preferably french green beans or thinner green beans will work
  • 10 slices bacon do not use thick cut
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • ¼ cup butter
  • 2 Tablespoons brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 Tablespoon fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat the grill to medium high heat, about 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Trim the ends of the green beans and add to a medium sized mixing bowl.
  • In a small bowl mix together the garlic salt, butter, brown sugar and pepper. Pour mixture over the green beans and toss to coat.
  • Take 8-10 green beans and place on one end of a slice of bacon. Roll the green beans up with the bacon and secure it with a toothpick.
  • Place the bacon wrapped beans on the grill and grill for 12 minutes flipping every couple minutes or until bacon is crispy.
  • Sprinkle with parsley if desired and serve immediately.

Notes

Fridge: These bundles are best enjoyed right away but if there are any leftovers, store them in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
Freezer: I don't recommend freezing leftovers because the green beans will turn quite soggy once reheated.
Reheat leftovers out on the grill if you've got it turned on, or heat up in the oven for about 10 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit or until hot through. The air fryer is my favorite way to reheat so the bacon crisps up.
