Campfire Hobo Dinner

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I made mine on the campfire coals. The only note I would make is to flip your packet over midway thru the cooking process or everything on the bottom of the packet will burn. Double wrap it so that not to much of the juices flow out. But it definitely has to be flipped.

    Campfire Hobo Dinner, In the sixties I was a Camp Fire Girl and this is a recipe we learned to make and cook over a campfire We made ours with a pork chop, potatoes, carrots and onion I’ve tried to revise it so you can use any of your families favorite vegetables and meat You could make these before you leave home and put them in a waterproof container in your ice chest List of meats that work good: chicken tenders, smoked sausage slices, ground beef patties, ground turkey patties, thin boneless pork chops List of vegetables that work good: carrots, green beans, corn, mixed vegetables, etc (Vegetables can be fresh, frozen or canned) Be creative!, I made mine on the campfire coals The only note I would make is to flip your packet over midway thru the cooking process or everything on the bottom of the packet will burn Double wrap it so that not to much of the juices flow out But it definitely has to be flipped , We enjoyed this meal We made it in the oven, cooked it at 350 Our total cooking time was close to 50 minutes We measured our ground beef (we used 85%) into 1/2 pound portions, then shaped it into patties using our Tupperware Burger Press We cut up extra vegetables than the recipe called for because we really like them We used a mandoline to get our potato slices nice and thin Once they were cut we put them in a bowl and covered them with water to prevent browning We sliced our carrots to the same thickness using a knife We used 1 large onion sliced We laid out the foil, sprayed it with cooking spray, put 1 beef patty on each sheet of foil then seasoned with garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper Topped the patty with onions, potatoes (drained), carrots and butter Seasoned again before sealing foil packets A couple of packets were stuffed pretty full and had to be sealed with a 2nd sheet of foil My husband and I ate the beef patty on a hamburger bun with cheese Our niece cut her patty up and dipped the bites in ketchup Thanks for the recipe!
