"German" Barbecued Carrots are a unique and delicious variation of the classic grilled carrot dish. These carrots are smothered in a tomato-based sauce, which creates a sweet and savory flavor that pairs perfectly with the smoky flavor of the grill. The bacon adds a crispy texture and a salty flavor that complements the sweetness of the sauce. This dish can be made ahead of time for added convenience and is sure to be a crowd-pleaser at any outdoor gathering.

Instructions

1.	Preheat the grill on medium for indirect cooking.
2.	In a saucepan, cook the bacon until it is crispy and transfer it to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess grease.
3.	Pour out all but 2 tablespoons of the bacon grease and add the tomato soup and sugar to the saucepan.
4.	Mix well and bring the mixture to a boil.
5.	Add the sliced carrots to the mixture, toss to coat well, and transfer the mixture to a hot foil-lined grill pan.
6.	Sprinkle the cooked bacon over the top of the carrots and grill, covered, for 45 minutes, or until the carrots are cooked to your liking.
7.	Serve hot and enjoy!
