    Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.

    Cut each piece of bacon into thirds or halves. Wrap each water chestnut with a piece of bacon large enough to encircle it and secure the bacon with a toothpick. Place the bacon-wrapped chestnuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

    Place the baking sheet directly on the grill grates. Close the lid and bake for 20 minutes.
