Serves: 8
Method
Fold a 36 x 18 inch piece of heavy foil in half to make an 18 inch square. Place onion slices in centre of foil. Dot with butter. Bring up opposite edges of the foil; seal with a double fold. Seal remaining edges with double folds to completely enclose the onions, leaving space for steam to build.
For a charcoal grill, place the packet on rack of covered grill directly over medium coals. Grill for 25 to 30 minutes or until onions are just tender; turn packet once or twice during cooking. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Grill.)
In a large bowl combine crumbled blue cheese, cream cheese, Worcestershire sauce, pepper and dill weed. Use a slotted spoon to add onions to the cheese mixture; toss to coat.
Serve on grilled burgers topped with bacon or with grilled steaks.
