BBQ Grilled Caramelized Onions

BBQ grilled caramelized onions are a delicious and versatile side dish that perfectly complements grilled meats and sandwiches. In American barbecue culture, caramelizing onions is a common technique that enhances the vegetable's natural sweetness. The combination of balsamic vinegar and brown sugar balances the intense flavor of the smoky BBQ sauce, while the slightly toasted layer that develops during grilling adds depth and richness to the dish. For an even more exciting twist, try serving it with smoked cheese or crispy bacon!
