Tin Foil Dinners

Tin foil dinners are a great way to have the least amount of cleanup during dinner at camp.  One thing to keep in mind is that you need to have coals to cook your meal. There are many options on what to cook with a tin foil dinner.  Some of my favorites are fajitas, stir-fry, and good old Scouter Hash. To save on cooking time, precook your meal at home and wrap in the tin foil. When you reach camp, and the coals are ready, you will be the first one eating while the others are waiting an hour for their hash to cook.

Scouter Hash Recipe

Use about 3 feet of tin foil

Place items within the tin foil as follows:

1 pound ground beef or turkey

1 diced potato

1 diced carrot

1 diced green pepper

1 diced onion

2 TBS butter

Double wrap

Start fire, wait for coals, place with meat side down first on coals, turn over after you hear sizzling for 2 minutes, let cook for another 5-10 minutes, remove with tongs and enjoy.
