Since our kitchen is being remodeled, we prepare all of our meals on the grill. But that doesn’t mean we have to have hot dogs and hamburgers every night!

We love these deluxe hobo packets. Now, to be true to the name, you need to make them in foil pouches, but I made such a big batch I would’ve ended up with 14 packets! Instead I used a large aluminum pan.

Everyone Into The Pan!

These deluxe hobo packets taste just as good if not better the day after you’ve made them. You can use whatever you have on hand – add squash, carrots, anything! And make sure to get plenty of the delicious broth from the bottom of the pan in each and every bite!
