HOW TO PREP A HOBO DINNER: CAMPFIRE FOIL PACKET MEAL #howto #diy #campfirecooking #thelastboyscouts

WITH ALUMINUM ON HOT COALS – AKA: THE HOBO DINNER

The idealistic camp meal–no pots or pans to carry – no utensils to clean afterward. Sound too good to be true? NOPE! Its the not-so-secret method of utilizing aluminum foil as your vessel. Throughout my years as a Scout, and later in life as an , aluminum foil was a staple for meals.

For those of you unfamiliar with this technique, here’s what you do. Wrap your foodstuff in a triple thickness of heavy duty foil in such a way to prevent the steam from escaping. Your foodstuff can be any combination of protein, vegetables, etc – as long as you are familiar with its particular need for cook-time. I tend to stick with a combination of ground beef, and diced: potato, onion, carrots, and garlic – seasoned appropriately.

In this episode, I demonstrate a simpler version of creating a Hobo Dinner. When making your own, be as creative as you want with ingredients you know will meld together.

The next episode will cover your meal by place the wrapped package on a bed of hot coals. When cooked, the foil will be my plate!

ADDITIONAL TIPS:

When prepping your pack for a trip to the wilderness, pull an appropriate length of a foil roll out, cut off what you need, fold it up, store it in an appropriate compartment in your pack. You could also prep your foil package at home, ready for cooking in camp, leaving you more time to enjoy the great outdoors.
