Vacuum packed and ready for labeling and freezing. They were very moist, so I'm glad that I had a chamber vacuum sealer. I distributed the juice in each bag. Each bag contained 6-12 Oz. I estimated (guessed) that ~2 Oz. would suffice for one serving.

I found out why the onions did not get as dark as I expected. Unbeknownst to me, my loving wife stored the clips that hold the top, under the inner bowl, which reduced heat transfer.

Guess I'm going to have to look into getting one of those chamber vacuum sealers.

Good idea, I'll try them next time. BTW, go easy on the brown sugar if you are using it, the onions were sweet enough without it.  used 1 tbs. for six large onions, I'll use 2 tsp. next time. I also used 2 tbs. of balsamic vinegar. The final product was very good.

Any objections to changing the subject to Caramelized Onions in a Crock Pot?  It would certainly help me find it again when I am looking for this great idea.  I believe it may help others too.

I support you name change for the reason you mention.

You might want to consider removing the trade name Crock Part and substitute slow cooker.

Name change would surely be appropriate, I'm not sure how to do it.
