Whisky Onions

Okay here is one of my favorite complements to red meat, pork, or wild game. Whiskey Onion recipe is so good I make it every time I grill. I even make Whiskey Onions when I make meat loaf for my Whiskey Onion Meat Loaf.
What you need.
5 to 6 onions about 1 lb each Vadalia onions are my favorite for this recipe
3/4 cup of red wine
1 cup whiskey what ever brand you like.
1/2 cup brown surger
2  Tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper to taste
2 Tablespoons butter
2 Tablespons oil
  1. Slice your onions as thin as you like then in a large pan melt your butter and add the oil. Then add your onions and carmelize on mediun heat to a deep brown but not burn onion.
  2. When you got the onions to a nice color add rest of you ingredients. Reduce the Whiskey and wine to almost nothing.
Now you have a great onion side for steak, burgers, chops. You can also take and add the onions to a favorite meatloaf recipe.
Couple other things you can add to the Whiskey Onions
  1. Jalapeno’s as about 1 to 3 or if you like heat add more
  2. Mushrooms about 1 lb.
  3.
