The only time I've ever been asked to do that was when doing a love job for a good friend, how I got round the problem was to give him my grouting gear and told him to do it himself. Love only goes so far.
I do believe he and his wife did it with there fingers (that didnt quite sound right), turned out ok, but they do have a hell of a job keeping it clean behind the cooker.
Never tried the grout bag, but i suppose in theory it could work.
