First had these at a friends house watching the UFC fights and this was more exciting that that fight that night!! I love both water chestnuts and bacon, NEVER knew the two of them together w/ that sauce would be so amazing! Now i make this at all our parties! It's a HUGE hit during footballs season!

Great recipe. I made a couple small changes. I used 3 cans of water chestnuts per 1 package of bacon. I also uses a tad more chili sauce and a dash of cayenne pepper in the sauce. I took other reviewers advice and pre-cooked the bacon to get a slight crisp. I also let the sauce sit in the fridge for a couple hours to let the flavors steep.

We make this every year for Thanksgiving and Christmas. They're so good! Never any left overs, and guests even ask to take some home with them. Definitely a big holiday hit.

LOVE these.... Made them Two years ago when we hosted Christmas Eve for my family. My husband and I made them in advance to test them before the party. Loved them and ate them all by ourselves. ;) I now make them for every party we have at home.. and everyone asks us to make them for every party we are invited to!!! Dont let the ingredients scare you.. these are amazing and will be a HUGE hit!!! Changes nothing with the ingredients!!!

Love this recipe, it turns out great everytime!! I don't use the mayo / chili sauce - instead I just use brown sugar and ketchup. I like it that way, the sweet goes really well with the saltiness of the bacon. Will be making this again and again.

Made these delicious waterchestnuts a few years ago the exact reciepe for a bridal shower they were amazing . instead of cooking the bacon in a skillet we broiled them in the oven watching constantly it was way easier to wrap the water chestnuts in them this way and they werent saturated in bacon fat it was so delicious we made enough for around 8 pounds of bacon and they were all gone with in the first thirty minutes everyone loved them
