1 Peel and cut about ½" off the onion tops. Trim off a small amount of the bottom of onions so they stand upright. With a spoon, scoop out a few of the inner layers of the onion, leaving the majority of the outer layers.
2 Brush onions with olive oil and liberally sprinkle seasoning over each onion. Wrap bacon slices around each onion; secure with toothpick.
3 Prep smoker to 250° F.
4 Combine basting sauce ingredients in a mixing bowl. Put 2 tablespoons of sauce in the center of each onion. Smoke for 2 hours. Baste every 30 minutes. The last 5–10 minutes, place cheese inside and around onions, allowing to melt. Garnish with parsley.
