Instructions
When camping, I will typically preboil the potatoes. Cube potatoes, cut carrots into one inch pieces and slice onions. Prepare double layered aluminum foil and divide all ingredients evenly. Season with spices as desired. Seal ingredients in foil to make pouches.
Cooking preferences can vary from baking in campfire to cooking directly over coals. Unfortunately, I cannot give cooking times due to variances in fire temperatures. Basically cook until meat is done. Directly over flames is approximately 1 hour flipping and rotating pouches every 15 minutes.
Any meat can be substituted in.
This can also be prepared at home in an oven at 350. There are no amounts listed because it can be varied for the amount of people you are serving.
