Peel the yellow onions and cut each onion into 6 equal wedges, for a total of 12 pieces.
Wrap each onion wedge with a strip of bacon, ensuring that the bacon covers most of the surface. Use a wooden skewer or toothpick to secure the bacon in place if needed.
Preheat your grill to medium heat (about 375°F) and lightly spray the grill grates with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and ground black pepper.
Sprinkle the brown sugar and pepper mixture evenly over the bacon-wrapped onion wedges, patting gently to help it adhere.
Place the bacon-wrapped onion wedges on the grill. Cook for about 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally, until the bacon is crispy and the onion is tender.
Once cooked, remove the appetizers from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm as an appetizer or snack. Enjoy!
