STEAK AND POTATO FOIL PACKS
As a park ranger, I've cooked a lot of meals outdoors. I often assemble a steak and potato foil pack and toss it into my backpack with some ice. Then when I set up camp, it's easy to cook over a campfire. If I'm at home, I use my grill, and the food is just as good. -Ralph Jones, San Diego, California

Tips:
- Choose the right steak: Select a steak that is at least 1 inch thick and has good marbling. This will ensure that the steak is juicy and flavorful.
- Prepare the steak: Pat the steak dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture. This will help the steak sear properly.
- Season the steak: Season the steak liberally with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. This will ensure that the steak cooks quickly and evenly.
- Wrap the steak in foil: Place the steak in the center of a large piece of aluminum foil. Fold the foil up around the steak, making sure that it is completely sealed. This will help the steak cook evenly and retain its juices.
- Bake the steak: Place the foil-wrapped steak on a baking sheet and bake it in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the steak reaches your desired doneness.
- Let the steak rest: Once the steak is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.
