Preparation

Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat to 450°F.
Toss the radicchio wedges on a large rimmed baking sheet with the oil, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Arrange cut side down in a single layer. Roast for 15 minutes. Flip and roast until the radicchio is wilted, 5 to 10 minutes more.
Bunch the radicchio together and sprinkle with 2 oz. crumbled blue cheese. Roast until the cheese just starts to melt, 1 to 2 minutes.
Serve drizzled with balsamic glaze and sprinkled with bacon, if you like.
