How to Make Hobo Packets
To start, add the beef, mayo, Worcestershire sauce, and minced onion into a large bowl and combine.
First, form the meat mixture into 6 patties.
Secondly, wash and prep your potatoes, carrots, and onion and put them into a large bowl.
Next, add half of the oil and half of the seasoning into the veggies and combine.
Then, add the remaining oil and seasoning and toss to combine again.
Next, separate the veggies into 6 packets and put one patty on top.
Now, fold and seal the foil and place it on a grill at medium heat or 325 degrees.
Cook the packets for 20-25 minutes, making sure to flip and shake to keep the meat and veggies from burning.
After, take the packets off the heat when the veggies are soft and the patty is medium-well done which is 150 degrees.
Finally, serve right away and store the leftovers in the fridge for later.
