Bring up opposite edges of the foil and seal with a double fold. Fold remaining edges together to completely enclose the onions, leaving space for steam to build.

Step# 3 For the time being, combine ground beef, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Shape into eight 3 or 4 inch thick patties. Place patties on grill rack. Grill for 14 to 18 minutes or until burgers are done, turning once halfway through grilling. If using a gas grill then preheat grill and reduce heat to medium. Place onion packets, then patties on grill rack over heat.
