Onions On The Grill Food

CARAMELIZED ONIONS ON THE GRILL

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat.
• Place the onion wedges on a sheet of heavy duty aluminum foil. Dot with butter, then sprinkle with bouillon, garlic salt, and pepper to taste. Fold the aluminum foil into a packet, leaving only a small hole at the top to allow steam to escape.
• Place packet on preheated grill, and cook until the onions have softened, and cooked to a deep, rich brown, 45 minutes to 1 hour depending on the temperature of the grill. Stir the onions after the first 30 minutes, or as needed to keep from burning.

WHOLE GRILLED ONIONS

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Slice the stem from the onions and peel them, leaving the root intact. Slice a bit of the root off, just enough to provide a flat end so they won't wobble.
• Working from the top and using a sharp knife, a small melon baller, or apple corer, cut the cores from the onions. You should have a cavity about 1-inch across and almost through to the bottom of the onion without piercing it. Use the cored-out onion pieces for another purpose.
• Salt and pepper the onion cavities and then fill each onion with 1 tablespoon of butter. Sprinkle the onions lightly with a bit more salt and pepper.
• Wrap the onions in foil, gathering at the top and twisting to seal.
• Cook in a closed grill for about 1 to 1 1/2 hours over medium indirect coals .
• Untwist top of foil and spread open about 10 minutes before serving.
• Leave them on the grill for more smoked flavor, if you like.
• Remove the onions to a serving platter.

PERFECT GRILLED ONIONS HACK!

Steps:

• Heat your cast iron skillet over medium heat.
• Add the butter, onions and kosher salt. Cook stirring every few minutes.
• As soon as the onions start to look a little dry, add in a few tablespoons of water. This will both prevent the onions from drying out and keep them juicy and cooking at an even temperature. The water will evaporate as it cooks, leaving you with perfectly juicy onions. I usually add water twice during the cooking process.
• Continue to grill the onions uncovered until they are soft and golden brown. About 30 minutes.
• Serve warm or cold.
