These were a regular in our rotation when I was growing up. The first time we made these, my grandpa commented that he didn't know of any hobo that would eat so well.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lbs ground chuck
2 potatoes, sliced
4 slices onions
1 (15 ounce) can carrots, drained
1 (15 ounce) can green beans, drained
1 cup shredded cheese, any type of your choice
garlic salt or garlic powder, to taste
pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Make 4 patties out of ground chuck.
  • Place patty in the middle of a piece of aluminum foil. (make foil big enough to come back up to the middle of the patty and to go around the veggies).
  • Sprinkle with garlic salt or garlic powder and pepper.
  • Stack veggies on top of burger patty, starting with potatoes.
  • Follow by onion slices.
  • Follow with carrots and green beans.
  • Pull foil up to middle and gather at the top and twist closed. (try to make sure no areas are open on the side for easier clean-up).
  • Place in 375°F oven on cookie sheet or directly on oven racks if you are certain, all areas are closed up for 1 hour or until patties are cooked through.
  • Once cooked, open foil packet and sprinkle cheese on top.
  • Leaving foil packet open, place back in oven long enough to just melt the cheese.
  • No need for sides, the whole meal is in the packet!
  • Can be cooked on the BBQ grill or campfire also.

Tips:

  • Use a cast iron skillet or griddle for the best results. They retain heat well and cook the hobos evenly.
  • Heat the skillet or griddle over medium-high heat before adding the hobos. This will help to prevent them from sticking.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet or griddle. Leave some space between each hobo so that they can cook evenly.
  • Cook the hobos for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
  • Serve the hobos immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include ketchup, mustard, relish, and cheese.

Conclusion:

Hobos are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are a great option for a quick lunch or dinner, and they can also be served as an appetizer or snack. With so many different variations to choose from, there is sure to be a hobo recipe that everyone will love.
