Wrapping one outstanding food around another couldn't possibly go wrong, especially when one of those foods is bacon. These surf and turf morsels may just be appetizers, but chances are you'll want them as a main course.

Too cold to grill so I made these under the broiler. Put three shrimp on a skewer. Sprinkled the almost cooked bacon with a little brown sugar and let it caramelize. YUMMM!
