- Place one onion in the middle of each square.
- Stir.
- together margarine or butter,mustard and hot pepper.
- Drizzle this over onions.
- Sprinkle each onion with the brown sugar.
- Bring up two opposite edges of each square and seal with double fold.
- Fold remaining two sides to enclose onion leaving room for steam to build.
- Cook over medium heat on a grill with a drip pan under the foil packets.
- Cover and grill for 25 minutes or until onions are tender.
- Cut a 2" opening in the top of each packet, cover and grill for 10 minutes more or until onions are lightly browned.

These onions are great - I did them in the oven,foil wrapped 350F for 20 minutes opened up for10 more minutes (Iremoved 2 from the foil for the picture).They were cooked and piping hot but still had a crunch to them - perfect. I used Brown sugar substitute. Loved the mustard, butter & hot sauce. They look lovely and they are ever so tasty thanks Doris for a keeper
