Foil Packets: Hobo Dinners
Made camping at Peninsula State Park Sept. 2022.
Delicious and easy; the sauce/gravy is wonderful.
You can make in the oven or on a grill.

- 1 lb. lean ground beef (ground sirloin)
- 1 package dry onion soup mix
- 4 small potatoes, peeled and sliced or diced
- 2 c. carrots chopped
- 1 large or 2 small onions, sliced or diced
- 2 Tbls. olive oil
- 1 t. garlic powder
- salt & pepper to taste
- can of cream of condensed mushroom or golden mushroom soup
Instructions
OVEN METHOD: Preheat oven to 375 degrees
Combine ground beef and dry soup mix in a bowl. Form into four patties and set aside.
In a large bowl combine all remaining ingredients except mushroom soup. Toss until well mixed.
Spray 4 sheets of 12″ x 18″ piece of foil with non-stick spray.
For each piece of foil, place ¼ of the vegetable mixture in the center of the foil. Top with 1 beef patty. Add 2 tablespoons of condensed mushroom soup on top of each patty.
Seal foil packets well. Place beef side up on a large baking sheet and bake 35-45 minutes or until potatoes and carrots are tender.
GRILL METHOD: These foil packs can also be grilled at medium heat (low-medium if using a small grill) for about 45 minutes or until potatoes are tender and ground beef reaches 160 degrees.
