A sweet, smokey marinade makes thick grilled onion wedges the hit of the summer!
INGREDIENTS (for 4 servings):
- 2 large sweet onions, cut in wedges
- 8 thick hickory-smoked bacon slices, cut in half
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon molasses
PREPARATION:
WRAP onion wedges with bacon; secure with long wooden picks. Place in a large shallow dish.
COMBINE sugar, vinegar, and molasses; drizzle over onion wedges. Cover and chill 1 hour.
REMOVE onion wedges from marinade, reserving marinade.
GRILL, covered with grill lid, over medium-high heat (350 degrees to 400 degrees) 20 minutes or until onion wedges are crisp-tender, turning and basting occasionally with reserved marinade.
