Ingredients

  • 1 lb Ground beef
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 0.5 tsp Black pepper
  • 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
  • 0.5 tsp Onion powder
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 medium Yellow onion
  • 2 medium Carrots
  • 2 medium Potatoes
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 4 sheets Aluminum foil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill or oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix well and divide into four equal patties.

Step 3

Peel and slice the yellow onion, carrots, and potatoes into thin, even slices.

Step 4

Lay out four large sheets of aluminum foil. Drizzle 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil on each sheet to prevent sticking.

Step 5

In the center of each foil sheet, place a handful of potato slices, followed by a few carrot slices and onion slices.

Step 6

Place one beef patty on top of the vegetables.

Step 7

Add a small pat of butter (about 1/2 tablespoon) on top of each beef patty for added flavor.

Step 8

Fold the foil packet tightly around the contents, ensuring it's sealed completely to trap steam.

Step 9

If using a grill: Place the foil packets on the grill grates and cook for 35-40 minutes, flipping halfway through. If using an oven: Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake for 40 minutes.

Step 10

Carefully open one packet after cooking to check that the beef is fully cooked and the vegetables are tender.

Step 11

Allow the packets to cool slightly before carefully opening and serving directly from the foil for a rustic presentation.
