Ingredients

  • 2 large Vidalia onions or other sweet onions, cut into 1/2-inch slices

  • 1 tablespoon butter

  • 4 ounce blue cheese, crumbled (1 cup)

  • ½ 8 ounce package cream cheese, cut up

  • 2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • ½ teaspoon dried dillweed

  • Grilled burgers topped with bacon or grilled steaks

Directions

  1. Fold a 36x18-inch piece of heavy foil in half to make an 18-inch square. Place onion slices in center of foil. Dot with butter. Bring up opposite edges of the foil; seal with a double fold. Seal remaining edges with double folds to completely enclose the onions, leaving space for steam to build.

  2. For a charcoal grill, place the packet on rack of covered grill directly over medium coals. Grill for 25 to 30 minutes or until onions are just tender; turn packet once or twice during cooking. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Grill as above.)

  3. In a large bowl combine crumbled blue cheese, cream cheese, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, and dillweed. Use a slotted spoon to add onions to the cheese mixture; toss to coat. Serve on grilled burgers topped with bacon, or with grilled steaks. Makes 8 servings.
