Hamburger Foil Packets Hobo Dinner Food

HAMBURGER FOIL PACKET HOBO DINNERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350
• Divide ground beef into 4 even hamburger patties about 1 inch thick. If you are feeding children you may want to make their portions smaller.
• Wash your veggies. Cut carrots into 1 inch pieces and potatoes into 1-2 inch pieces.
• Place hamburger patties in the center of each piece of aluminum foil. Surround each patty with pieces of carrots, potatoes, and onions if you choose.
• Place 1/2-1 tbsp butter on the center of each patty. Sprinkles approx 1-2 tbsp of onion soup mix over the ingredients.
• Gather the corners of the foil up and scrunch together to seal each pocket. Place sealed pockets onto a baking sheet in case any sauce leaks out during baking.
• Bake at 350 for 40-60 minutes. Carefully unwrap one pocket keeping face away as steam escaping will be hot. Poke carrots and potatoes with a fork to check for doneness. Once vegetables are done the meat should be cooked through as well. You can check with a meat thermometer. Meat should read 140 degrees or more.

ELEGANT BRAISED LAMB SHANK DINNER RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Season the lamb shanks all over with salt and pepper.
• Heat the canola oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
• Sear 2 lamb shanks at a time until a dark brown crust forms on one side, 3-5 minutes. Sear the other sides of the meat until evenly browned. Remove the shanks from the pan and set aside. Remove all but 2 tablespoons of fat from the pan.
• Add the minced carrots, onion, celery, and minced garlic to the pot. Season with salt and pepper, and cook until the vegetables are deeply caramelized, 15-20 minutes.
• Add the tomato paste and cook until it browns and is aromatic, 5 minutes.
• Add the red wine and scrape the bottom of the pot to release the flavorful browned bits stuck to the bottom. Cook until the wine reduces by half and thickens slightly, 3 minutes.
• Add the chicken stock, orange juice, lemon juice, rosemary, thyme, and bay leaves. Stir and bring to a boil.
• Return the lamb shanks to the Dutch oven, cover, and place in the oven for 2 hours, turning the shanks halfway through, until the lamb is tender and the braising liquid has thickened.
• About halfway through the lamb cooking time, add the oblique-cut carrots, Brussels sprouts, red pearl onions, and whole garlic cloves to a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine. Roast in the oven for 1 hour, or until the vegetables are tender.
• Right after the potatoes finish boiling, drain and transfer to a large bowl. Season with plenty of salt and a bit of white pepper, and mash the potatoes until as smooth as possible.
• Fold in the butter, sour cream, and heavy cream until smooth and light.
• Make the citrus gremolata: In a small bowl, combine the parsley, lemon zest, flaky salt, garlic, chives, horseradish, and orange zest.
• To serve, scoop mashed potatoes onto a plate. Add roasted vegetables and a lamb shank. Top with the braising liquid and citrus gremolata.
• Enjoy!
