Caramelized Crock Pot Onions - onions

Method

• The measurements for the ingredients are per part.
• For a 6-quart crock pot, I used 6 pounds of onions and 2 sticks of butter.
• Next time, Ill use my 18-quart roaster, and hopefully 18 pounds of onions and 6 (!)
• sticks of butter.
• Use any onion you like.
• Yellow onions are usually cheapest.
• They will be very sweet when they are done, so only use sweet onions if you *really* like the sweetness.
• Slice onions 1/2-inch thick.
• Pile them into the crock pot and fill it as much as you can.
• Top with pats of butter.
• Turn crock pot on low.
• Stir after a few hours, and leave overnight.
• These can be put into containers to refrigerate, or they can be canned.
• To can: sterilize jars and lids.
• Fill with onions, and replace lids.
• Process.
• The possible uses are endless.
