TIN FOIL STEW
From my Girl Scout camping days. Our girls, especially when younger, loved to make this dinner because they could each make their own little foil packet and "customize it" to their own taste. At first, we had to encourage them to put in the onion, even if they didn't eat it, so it would flavor the rest. They usually agreed. Along with some Hawaiian rolls and butter, this was a satisfying meal.

Steps:
- Using a double layer square of heavy duty foil, form a bowl around your fist.
- Form 1 inch balls with the ground beef and place in bowl.
- Add the desired amount of sliced vegetables.
- Add A-1, ketsup, and garlic salt to taste.
- Pour water over the lot.
- Seal foil packet by tightly twisting top to look somewhat like a Hersheys Kiss. Be sure water cannot leak out in the cooking. (Alternately, a sandwich wrap can be used, but kids are not usually very good at getting these leak-free).
- Place packets between hot coals. (For a group, we would assign each girl a number and place the packets in a grid, so each girl got the packet she had made).
- Cook 1/2 to 1 hour depending on how hot your fire is. You may need to carefully open one to check for doneness.
- When done, carefully open the "bowl" and eat when cool enough to not burn you.

Steps:
- Put all foil stew ingredients in the middle of a large rectangle of heavy duty aluminum foil.Bring the foil up so that the ingredients are resting inside in a slightly elongated pile.
- Fold the top edges down together about 1 inch and crease. Fold over and do it again, and then once again. It helps to hold the foil stew up as you do this, because this allows you to keep some extra space in the packet, which helps in the cooking process. In other words, the folds themselves need to be very tight, but the foil stew inside should have a little wiggle room.
- Push the two ends down so that your foil stew is safely in the middle of the packet.
- Fold or roll the ends tightly.
- Get a second piece of foil and repeat steps A-D. Ready for the fire.
- To bake over an open fire, simply place your prepared foil stew on a bed of coals for 25-50 minutes, turning every 10-15 minutes. Check stew after 30 minutes, or 5 minutes after you begin to smell it cooking. See Cooking Time in NOTES below for more information.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of meat. Beef chuck, pork shoulder, and lamb shoulder are all good options for a flavorful stew.
- Brown the meat before adding it to the stew. This will help to develop flavor and prevent the meat from becoming tough.
- Use a variety of vegetables in your stew. This will add flavor, texture, and nutrients.
- Season the stew well. Use a combination of salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to taste.
- Simmer the stew for at least 1 hour, or until the meat is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
- Serve the stew hot, with crusty bread or rice.

Tin foil stew is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight. It is also a great way to use up leftover meat and vegetables. With a few simple tips, you can make a tin foil stew that is sure to please everyone at the table.
