CAMPFIRE FOIL PACKS



Campfire Foil Packs image

These are easy to make for camping, my husband loves them! We prepare them at home and then leave them in the cooler until we are ready to cook. You can use any combination of meat and vegetables that you like. Do not try to use less olive oil or foil or your dinner will burn. Be careful when opening foil as steam will have formed inside and can burn you.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
  • Choose the Right Foil: Use heavy-duty aluminum foil for your packets. This will help to prevent tearing and ensure that your food cooks evenly.
  • Create a Well-Balanced Packet: Include a protein, a vegetable, and a starch in each packet. This will ensure that your meal is complete and satisfying.
  • Season Generously: Don't be afraid to use plenty of herbs and spices. This will help to enhance the flavor of your food.
  • Seal the Packets Properly: Fold the foil packets tightly and securely. This will help to keep the juices in and prevent the packets from burning.
  • Cook at the Right Temperature: Cook the packets over medium heat for about 20 minutes. This will ensure that the food is cooked through without burning.
  • Let the Packets Rest: Once the packets are cooked, let them rest for a few minutes before opening. This will help the juices to redistribute and prevent them from spilling out.
