Invariably, a well-thought-out burger bar will include an endless arrangement of toppings, including onions.
Grilled onions only take a few minutes of preparation and are a delicious pairing for your patties.
The grill turns these onions into the perfect match for a well-seasoned burger and fresh bun.

The Best Onions for Grilling
My favorite onions to grill are sweet onions, especially Vidalia.
They are large and when grilled get, well, sweeter.
Readily abundant yellow onions are also a solid choice.

You know, rings and all.
The onions should have grill marks but should not burn.
If parts of the onion have blackened, remove them.

Taking the extra time to grill your onions will transform your burger, trust me.
Keeping the rings together.
Skewer onion slices with two skewers, making sure the skewers are spaced about one inch apart.

Brush each onion slice with olive oil and season evenly with salt.
Prepare the grill for direct medium heat, 350F to 450F.
Carefully remove the onion rings from the skewers and serve.
