Barbecue Season – Onion Balls

On Sunday we went over to a friends place for a barbeque.  It was great.  We havn’t barbequed at home since we moved here to Ottawa over 2 summers ago and i was thinking, perhaps it is time to get one.  Hum…  I remember in Barrhaven, I was cooking on the bbq all through winter.  But back then we were eating so much more meat.  I wonder…..

Well I saw a recipe on Facebook and thought what a great idea. I could do it with “ground rounds” (meatless).  I guess I could do it in the oven too?  Such an easy recipe too. Enjoy!

** ONION BALLS CAMPING FOOD**

large onions
ground meat
seasonings to taste
tin foil

Directions:
1. peel your onions and cut them in half as equally as possible.
2. Prepare your meatballs how you want them– I used italian seasoning, oregano, chili powder, minced garlic, ketchup, worcestershire sauce and some bread crumbs
3. Size your meatballs so that they can be squished between two pieces of onions. Some meat will push out the ends and that is okay!!! Just make them as compact as possible!!
4. wrap each onion ball in tinfoil– might want to double them since they’ll be tossed in the fire! Make sure not to poke holes in the foil!!
5. toss in the fire and try to get them in the coals.
6. cook for about 10 minutes, flip em around and cook another 10 minutes or so!!!
