This was pretty good. I used tapatio for the chili sauce since I was clueless about what kind of chili sauce to use since there are so many different types of chiles out there. I mean "chili sauce" is a pretty ambiguous ingredient. It could mean anything, so I used tapatio. Was anyone else stressing about what kind of chili sauce to use? I almost didn't make this because I didn't know what "chili sauce" meant. Anyway, it turned out good. Next time I'll try it using miracle whip and some other random sauce with some kind of chile in it. I precooked the bacon halfway before wrapping the chestnuts. I think it helps the chestnuts keep their crunch while in the oven. And of course the bacon gets crunchier sooner! Anyway, I'm going to serve this to my boyfriend some time.

This is so easy and so tasty. I used 1/3 strip of bacon for each. Aside from that did everything per the recipe. Highly recommend. Easy and tasty. What more could you ask for?

I love bacon and waterchestnuts, but this recipe didn't quite work out. Maybe if I marinated the waterchestnuts a bit longer (overnight), that may have made a difference. Everyone devoured it, but I think because it was a strange flavor vs. such a great flavor.

This has been a favorite for years. It's my signature appetizer. Ususally I cook the bacon until just before it starts to get crisp before wrapping the water chestnuts, then I pour the sauce over them and let them marinate a few hours or overnight before cooking. This way you can do almost all of it ahead of time. You can even do all the prep except the baking and freeze until you need them.

My husband absolutely loved them. I drained the grease three times and used lower sodium bacon to make us feel a little bit better about being so naughty.

These were awesome! I used miracle whip instead of mayonaisse. I baked these for about 20 minutes, but the bacon wasn't crispy enough. I broiled them until it was crispy, then I put the sauce on and baked some more. Delicious!

I make these often and always get asked to make them for our family get togethers...great recipe...the only problem with them is how addicting they are and how fast they go!! I agree with other viewers...double the recipe at least...these really go fast.

Sooooo good! I tried two of the bacon wraped recipes one where you marinate the chesnuts in soy sause and then rolled them in brown sugar and then wrapped them in bacon and this one. Everyone loved this one more. I liked it best when I combined the two. The sause really is the best part.

I took these to a Super Bowl party and every single one was eaten before the first quarter was over! They are amazing! I didn't have time to cook the bacon before I put them in the over as previous reviews had suggested, but they turned out crispy and delicious anyway!

I loved the addition of mayo to this classic recipe! I recommend at least doubling this recipe if you have a crowd because they always go so fast. I did take other reviewers suggestions and marinated the water chesnuts prior to wrapping them in bacon that I partially cooked on the stove. This gives the chestnuts more flavor and the bacon is extra crispy w/out having to bake them forever. Pre-cooking the bacon made them less greasy too. YUM!

Made these for a New Years Eve Party. They went first. I soaked them in a little soy sauce overnight first. They took longer than 20 minutes in the oven to crisp up. I cut the bacon into thirds and it worked for two cans of water chestnuts. Very good appetizer!!

This is a WONDERFUL recipe!! I just got asked to bring it to a New Year's party because my girlfriend's hubby and mine both LOVE it. It's great guy-food but us gals love it too. The recipe is excellent just the way it is but I think next time I'll use center-cut bacon as it's bit easier to deal with. Make sure you cook it till your bacon is nice and crispy. Thanks for a great recipe!!!

This recipe was awesome! It's super easy the traditional way, but substituting chili sauce for ketchup was genius! They had great flavor, and everyone at my party said they'd had rumaki before, but mine was the best EVER :) Like other viewers, I cooked the bacon much longer than called for in the recipe- no one wants to eat soggy bacon!
