Hobo Dinner Dutch Oven Recipe

Required:
aluminum foil
paper towels
long fire tongs
Ingredients:
Serves One:
1/4 lb. hamburger
1 potato
1 carrot
katchup or BBQ sauce
1/4 onion, optional

Seasoning: salt, pepper, ...
Instructions:
Wash, peel, and dice the vegetables.
With clean fingers, pull the hamburger into bits and place on foil wrappter.
Season hamburger and add vegetables and sauce as desired.
Fold foil into a flat package sealed well.
Place the dinner on coals.
Cook for 10 minutes, then flip and cook 10 more.
Unwrap and check one dinner to see if they are done.
Notes:
Create a foil wrapper for each person by sandwiching a wet paper towel between two squares of foil. This will help even the heat and prevent burning.

All recipes use a 12-inch dutch oven, unless specified.
If you have a 10-inch dutch oven, use about 2/3 to 3/4 of the ingredient amounts but keep the temperature and time about the same.
If you have an 8-inch dutch oven, use about 1/2 of the ingredient amounts but keep the temperature and time about the same.
If no temperature is listed, use 350 degrees.
See Heat Settings page for temperature and coal placement
for Frying, Stewing, Roasting, Baking, and Simmering.
