What's For Dinner {34} - Hobo Dinners!

Over the past year, my sister Bridget has given us not one, but two of our newest most favorite meals ever. Yes, that's a pretty big deal so THANK YOU, Bridget! (I'll post the second favorite in the near future - it's another great option for grilling!)

The first was a meal brought back from years ago. I'm pretty sure I had this a number of different times growing up but didn't have it for years before Bridget and Drew reintroduced it last summer. There's nothing better than family, a meal over the campfire and smore's in the summer!

Easy Hobo Tin Foil Dinner Recipe:
(Makes 4 dinners)
1 pound ground beef (we used 80/20 - ground chuck)
4 potatoes, peeled and cubed
2 cups carrots, thinly sliced or cubed
1 onion, diced (we love yellow onions)
Salt and pepper, to taste
Worcestershire sauce
Sauce of choice (I didn't use one but Gary liked BBQ sauce)
Shredded cheddar cheese



Use a large square piece of aluminum foil for each tin foil dinner. Spray foil with nonstick cooking spray. Separate ground beef into 4 equal patties and place in the center of each piece of foil. Divide potatoes, carrots and onion evenly between all 4 dinners and place on top of meat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, to taste. Pour a few dashes of Worcestershire sauce on top of each dinner and fold foil up tightly around the entire meal. Cook on a grill on medium-high heat or an open fire for 25-30 minutes, or until vegetables and meat are cooked through. We don't actually own a grill so we bake ours in the oven for at least 60 minutes at 350 degrees. Open foil carefully and top with sauce and shredded cheese.



We had to drain some of the fat too....doesn't sound appealing but we like the meal well enough it doesn't bother us to do that!
