Hobo Packs

Hobo Packs

Ingredients:
1-2 lbs hamburger meat (browned in a skillet)
1 diced potato per person
1 large diced carrot per person
1/4 cup diced onion per person
salt and pepper to taste (or garlic salt is good too)
1-2 cans of brown gravy
tin foil


Directions:
Prep a fire.  Let it burn for a while to develop hot coals.  Divide the fire pit in half with the appropriate safe tools, one side the fire and the other side hot coals.  Or let fire completely burn out and use hot coals.
For each person tear a piece of tin foil about 16 inches long.  On each piece of tin foil layer the ingredients: potatoes, carrots, onions, meat, and pour 1/4 to 1/2 cup of gravy over the top (this will keep everything moist).  Wrap the ingredients up tight in the tin foil.  Using large tongs place each tin foil pack in the coals of the fire, potatoes on bottom.  Let each wrap cook for 30 to 45 minutes.  Carefully remove from coals, unwrap and enjoy.
