Best 5 Grilled Vidalia Onions With Bacon Butter Recipes

UNCLE WILSON'S GRILLED ONIONS

Steps:

• Peel and wash the onions. With the point of a small, sharp knife, cut a 1-inch core from the top of each onion and make shallow slits in a circle around the top. Wrap 2 slices of bacon horizontally around each onion, and secure them with toothpicks. Then put 1 teaspoon of butter in each core. Season with salt and pepper.
• Place each onion on a square of aluminum foil and bring the edges together at the top, leaving a small opening for steam to escape. Put the foil-wrapped onions on the grill and cook for 1 hour, or until the onions are tender when pierced with the tip of a knife. You can also bake in the oven at 350 degrees F for 1 hour. Cool the onions for a few minutes then unwrap and cut into quarters to serve.

GRILLED BACON WRAPPED VIDALIA ONIONS

Steps:

• 1. Mix brown sugar/vinegar/molasses or Maple syrup and set aside. Cut Vidalia's into 1/2" to 1" wedges. Throw away (or chop up for other uses) the few center pieces. You need a flat surface to stick picks through
• 2. wrap each wedge center to center (around) with a 1/2 piece of bacon, top to bottom corner. Stick pick through bacon and onion. All the way through onion. This holds together while grilling. keeps from falling apart
• 3. Lay out a single layer of wedges/wrapped and put a spoonful of sauce mixture on each onion. This is thick and will soak in good. After each piece has sauce on it. Cover and place in fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight. Flip container over 1/2 way through if possible so liquid soaks in onions good.
• 4. Preheat grill to 300-350* It is a lot less messy to grill if you use an aluminum pan with holes in it on the grill. (dollar store) or a nonstick grill pad. cook until bacon is done and serve soon as possible. You will LOVE easier than i make it sound. ;o)
