Grilled Bacon-Wrapped Onion Rings With Sriracha Mayo. Dipping Sauce

Saw this in the paper, and here is the quote that accompanied, "Is there any food more adored than bacon? I can't think of one! This is a bacon-y twist on onion rings that is irresistible. Serve 'em up with the sriracha dipping sauce and watch 'em disappear!"
(serves 4)

Onion Rings:
2 large sweet onions, sliced in 1/2" thick rings
Dusting of a dry spice rub of your choice such as McCormick's Montreal* or Grill Mates
     Sweet and Smoky Rub
2 lbs. strips of thinly sliced bacon
Toothpicks
BBQ sauce such as Stubbs*

Sriracha Dipping Sauce:
1/2 cup mayo.
2 T. Sriracha Hot Sauce
2 t. freshly squeezed* lime juice
1/8 t. smoked* paprika
Kosher* salt and freshly* ground pepper, to taste

Prepare your grill for both direct and indirect cooking.
Place the onion rings into a large shallow bowl and dust with dry spice rub. Toss to coat all sides. Wrap each onion ring with a strip of uncooked bacon. Secure with a toothpick. Sear the wrapped onion rings directly over the coals for about 1 min. per side, then move them to the cooler side of the grill and cook, covered for about 1 hour or until the bacon is crispy. Brush with bbq sauce and continue to cook an additional 15 mins. to set the sauce on the rings.
To make the sauce: Combine all ingredients well in a small bowl and serve alongside the rings.
