How to Fold a Foil Packet

For best results, start by pulling the top and bottom of the aluminum foil to meet in the center.
Fold the two edges together tightly along the entire length. A 2-inch fold is ideal.
Finally, roll up the ends of the foil to create a packet.

Ingredients

Steak, cut into strips – whatever kind of steak you prefer.
Baby yellow potatoes, halved – substitute red potatoes or sweet potatoes for yellow ones.
Mushrooms, sliced
Garlic butter
Salt and pepper
Fresh parsley, garnish

Instructions

1. Preheat the BBQ grill to 400 degrees F.

2. Cut up the potatoes, place in a medium microwave safe bowl, and partially cook in the microwave for 3-5 mins.

Tip: we do this at home before we pack the potatoes for camping. You can also pre-cook the potatoes however you want. Just be sure that they are softened before placing them in the packet.

3. Cut the steak and slice the mushrooms.

4. Divide the ingredients equally onto four sheets of foil (about 12” long).

5. Top with garlic butter and parsley.

6. Fold foil into a packet.

7. Place the foil packets directly on the grill grate.

8. Cook for 10 minutes or until the steak reaches your desired level of doneness.

Tips and Tricks

When planning for camping, I like to do as much prep as possible at home, while I have access to hot running water. It makes cleaning up so much easier.
These steak foil packs can also be cooked on a sheet pan if you are worried about the packet leaking on the grill.
Use heavy duty foil or double wrap your packet if you are worried out breakage.
These steak foil packets can be cooked over the open flame of a campfire on the grill grate as well. Just be sure to check for doneness.
Open packets carefully. They release quite a bit of hot steam.
Give your foil a light coating of cooking spray to help prevent your ingredients from sticking.
Any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge or cooler.
