1 Cut onions into 1/2 inch-thick rings. Keeping the rings together.
2 Skewer onion slices with two skewers, making sure the skewers are spaced about one inch apart. I like to keep the onion slices flat on the cutting board and then eye their center mass, as I push the skewer horizontally through.
3 Brush each onion slice with olive oil and season evenly with salt.
4 Prepare the grill for direct medium heat, 350°F to 450°F.
5 Grill the onions over direct heat until blackened and seared by the grates approximately 8 to 10 minutes, flipping once halfway through cooking.
6 Carefully remove the onion rings from the skewers and serve.
