I know it needs to be 165IT but what temp would you GRILL it at? I'm grilling 2 of them Friday night for my wife's bday shindig. I don't get off of work early enough to smoke them so I have to crank the heat. Also...how long do they usually take to cook? This is my first one by the way. Thanks!!!

Could you smoke them ahead of time & heat them back up to serve? That way you wouldn't have to rush them

Ah ok 

  In that case I'm afraid I can't be of much help as I've never used my grill for fatties. At least you won't have any trouble getting a crisp bacon wrap!  There has to be someone around here that has grilled them before & can help you out though. Make sure you let us know how they turned out & have fun at your party

They grill fairly fast. I did two on my Weber Kettle and wanna say it took about an hour with indirect heat - but really didn't keep track of time since I was still going by temp.

I smoke them at 300 in my electric smoker and they always turn out really good.
