1 1/2 Teaspoon sugar
1 Teaspoon garlic salt
1 Teaspoon black pepper
1/2 Teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 Cup beef bouillon
1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 Tablespoon bourbon
1 1/2 Cup sour cream

Step

  • 1

    When ready to cook, set the grill temperature to 250 degrees and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes.

  • 2

    Put the butter and vegetable oil in a disposable foil pan and place it on the grill grate. When the butter is melted, stir in the onions (diced), sugar, garlic salt, pepper, and thyme.

  • 3

    Combine the beef bouillon, Worcestershire sauce, and bourbon, if using, in a glass measuring cup and pour half over the onions.

  • 4

    Return the pan to the grill grate and cook the onions, stirring occasionally, adding more sauce if needed, until they are soft and golden brown (about 45 minutes to 1 hour). Let the onions cool completely.

  • 5

    While onions are cooking, combine the sour cream and cream cheese in a large mixing bowl and stir until smooth.

  • 6

    Stir in the cooled onions and chives, if using. Add more salt and pepper to taste.

  • 7

    Cover and chill until serving. Serve with crudites or potato chips. Enjoy!
