There’s something undeniably mouthwatering about the savory combo of smoky bacon and tender shrimp. When brushed with a spicy apricot barbecue sauce and grilled to perfection, this duo becomes irresistible. But as simple as it sounds, the method matters.

Then, using a two-zone grill setup with indirect heat helps cook everything evenly while avoiding flare-ups.
