  • Prep your vegetables: Cut them into uniform sizes to ensure even cooking. You can also pre-cook some vegetables, like potatoes, to save time.
  • Use heavy-duty foil: This will prevent tearing and ensure your hobo dinners stay intact during cooking.
  • Seal your hobo dinners tightly: Fold the foil packets securely to prevent steam and juices from escaping.
  • Cook over medium-low heat: This will help the vegetables cook evenly without burning.
  • Add moisture: If your vegetables are dry, add a splash of water or broth to the foil packets before sealing.
  • Cook until tender: The cooking time will vary depending on the vegetables you choose. Insert a fork or skewer to check for doneness.
  • Serve immediately: Hobo dinners are best enjoyed hot off the grill or campfire.
