Putting bacon directly on grill grates not only gets messy; it's also a safety hazard, as rendered fat can cause grease fires, notes Southern Living. Using a grill pan or a cast-iron skillet is a good way to avoid the risk, but you can also use foil, folding it over once or twice to create a sturdier surface.
Before your get-together, test-grill a couple of individual strips of bacon to determine how fast it will cook. Pre-heating the grill to 400 degrees Fahrenheit will ensure crispier bacon, as will using tongs to flip the bacon. (You may want to do this a little more frequently than you would on the stovetop.)
As for heat, creating a two-zone fire allows you to move the bacon from low to high heat as needed. This is also a great way to cook steaks, as it enables you to sear at a high heat for an outer crust, then move to a lower heat zone to finish cooking the interior. (For less maintenance, you can stick with the lower heat zone; just plan to cook the bacon a bit longer.)
