Cut the onions into about 2-inch chunks and separate them into rings.

Brush barbecue sauce around the onion rings.

Wrap each onion ring with a piece of bacon, using about one slice of bacon per ring.

Sprinkle barbecue rub or seasoning over the bacon-wrapped onion rings, or use brown sugar if preferred.

Let the onion rings sit overnight if possible, or place them directly on the smoker.

Smoke the onion rings for about 90 minutes.

Halfway through smoking, add more barbecue sauce to the rings.
