the Test Kitchen, or the Cooks Country did an episode in recent memory on bacon wrapped scallops on the grill
their twist, wether original or 'borrowed' had something to do with doing them on their sides ( bacon side ) and maybe the bacon was partially cooked before the
wrap.
I have not tried this as scallops Id appreciate are massively expensive
