Grilled Indiana Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers

When I was in college, and after an excruciatingly long week of classes, my friends and I would mosey to our favorite local eatery and share a basket of jalapeno poppers. Those were the days! One of my college friends recently emailed me an updated recipe bringing bacon into the mix of cream-cheese deliciousness. Yes, please!
