Great onions that go with anything that is grilled on the BBQ. A TV chef did this once and it has been a family faviorite since. Only problem is I have never measured ingredients - so adjust to suit your own taste! Also great on a sausage sandwich.

CARAMELIZED ONIONS ON THE GRILL



Caramelized Onions on the Grill image

These are absolutely melt in your mouth delicious! You can make them on the grill or in the oven. Even friends of ours that don't care for onions loved these! I would recommend that you use 1 large onion for every 2 people. Some people want one whole onion to themselves so you might want to make some extra! They are also good heated up the next day but we rarely have any extra!
