Tin Foil Dinners

One of my favorite things about camping is tin foil dinners cooked in the fire. The combination of flavors mixed with the cool mountain air and sounds of a river are a happy place for me.

I love making them to cook over a fire or on a grill, but they can also be made in your oven.

I am sure there are a million different ways to make them, but here’s what we do!

Ingredients
  • Ground Beef
  • Cream of Mushroom soup
  • Onions
  • Potatoes
  • Carrots
  • Garlic Salt
  • Onion Powder
  • Pepper
Instructions
  • First I cut the carrots, potatoes, and onions into bite sized pieces *if you want it to cook quicker, slice the carrots and potatoes thinner
  • Lay out the tin foil that has been cut about 18″ long.
  • Lay a spoonful of the soup in the center of the foil
  • Place a ground beef patty on top and season
  • Add another spoonful of soup on top of that
  • Put the veggies on top of the soup
  • Roll up the foil and flatten a little bit to help it cook evenly.

When they are all rolled and ready to go, place them in the fire or grill. Depending on how hot your fire is, they can take anywhere from 20-40 minutes. I usually determine that mine is done by checking the meat pinkness and carrot tenderness.

If you are cooking yours at home, cook them on a sheet in an oven that was preheated to 375 degrees for 45 minutes, flipping them at 25 minutes.

They were so fun and delicious! Hope you enjoy!
