Carmelized Crock Pot Onions

• 1 pound Onions
• 2 Tablespoons Butter

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, I’ll 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.
