I love love love French onion soup. Whenever it's on the menu I'm all in. The other day I had a bunch of onions and I was making pork chips for dinner so I decided to make French onion soup porkchops. So first we make the soup.. I researched like I always do. I read 4 different recipes on some renound cooking sites and decided on my own.

1/2c butter
4-5 onions sliced thin
2 cloves garlic, chopped 
2 sprigs of Thyme or 2tsp thyme
1tsp herbs de Provence
1/2 bottle of red wine 
4c water
4tsp better the bullion beef stock
French baguette 
Swiss or Gruyere cheese
Method
In a large sock pot melt butter
Slice onions
On medium heat sauté onions with ryme and garlic 
Sauté onions on low heat for 1 1/2 hours
Let wine simmer, add Herbs de Provence reduce heat and cook until the wine reduced down about a half an hour.
Let simmer on medium.  Cook so flavores can blend about 20-30 min on low heat. 
Heat oven to broil, put baguette in a oven safe ramekin
Pour soup over 
Cover with cheese and cook under broiler.
And devour!
