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.

GRILLED POTATO AND ONION PACKETS



Grilled Potato and Onion Packets image

Great side dish for the grill. The mustard taste is very understated. My dh and I don't like mustard, but we love this recipe. In response to Engrossed's review, she is right that you don't need all the oil--I always have oil left in the bowl after I transfer the potato mixture to the foil, and I've just always tossed it.

  • Season your burgers well: Don't be afraid to use plenty of taco seasoning. You can also add other spices, such as chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder, to taste.
  • Cook your burgers over medium-high heat: This will help to create a crispy crust on the outside while keeping the inside juicy and flavorful.
  • Don't overcook your burgers: Overcooked burgers will be dry and tough. Cook them until they reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare or 170 degrees Fahrenheit for medium.
  • Let your burgers rest before serving: This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the burger, making them more tender and flavorful.
  • Serve your burgers with your favorite taco toppings: This could include shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sour cream, salsa, and guacamole.

Conclusion:

The grilled taco burger and potato foil packs are a delicious and easy meal that is perfect for a summer cookout. The burgers are juicy and flavorful, and the potatoes are tender and crispy. This meal is sure to be a hit with everyone at your next party or gathering.
