You can try a couple of different short-cuts to help this. 1. Pre-cook the bacon a bit to get it to render out some of the fat and yet still be flexible to wrap the food. This is something to consider when using thicker cuts of bacon. 2. Use the thinner slices of bacon to begin with. They will cook a bit faster, still yield some fat/flavor to the meat or potato in this case - and get crispier a bit faster. In this recipe cooking in the foil packet rendered a lot of the bacon fat and then he may have sat it on the warming rack above the hot burner to get a little of the 'convection' heat to crisp it up --- not sure.

I was wondering if that was why the bacon wasn't crispie after an hour in a 375 oven? But still something that I'll cook again! I did mine in the oven.

He piped it into the potatoes. OH MY GOD THEY WERE EXCELLENT! We did these in our oven, because way too much snow here, but I can't wait to do these in my big easy!
