Try it this way....

I've used this to make canned asparagus more "palatable" when it was all the veggie I had in the house. It's great for leftover steamed asparagus, too....

Take asparagus stalks in small bundles of three or four stalks. Wrap in a strip of bacon. Lay in a shallow pan. When bundles are all done, pour a barbecue sauce over them. Use a tangy, spicy sauce, not a sweet one. Bake in a 300* oven for just a few minutes, watching to be sure bacon doesn't burn. As soon as the bacon's done, the dish is done.

This works best with steamed asparagus, but it will work on canned in a pinch....

It's also REALLY good with whole green beans, but I like it better with asparagus.

For the record, I like asparagus best steamed with a little lemon butter and a pinch of kosher salt.
