Camper's Beef Stew

Be the first to write a review

From , former About.com Guide

A camping recipe from DebWilgus. I like to make foil pouch dinners while camping. This recipe is easy, cheap and no clean up. We dip right out of the pouch and just toss it in the trash when done. I also serve pre-buttered garlic bread that you buy at the store in the foil bag and throw it on the fire about 10-15 minutes before the stew is done. We dip the bread in the stew pouch to soak up the remaining broth. As my husband always says, "It really hits the spot."

Prep Time: 1 hour, 30 minutes

Total Time: 1 hour, 30 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1-2 pounds stew meat
  • 1 bag of frozen stew vegetables
  • 1 pouch of McCormick stew seasoning
  • 1/2 stick of butter
  • meat marinade of choice
  • heavy duty foil

Preparation:

Marinate meat. I put the stew meat in an air tight container with marinade right after breakfast to be chilled in cooler for the dinner meal. When it is time for the dinner meal, cut foil in large enough piece to make pouch. Place frozen veggies, meat and some marinade on foil. Sprinkle season package on mixture and add the butter right on top. Fold foil into pouch and set right on top of fire or grill for about an hour to hour 1/2 until meat is done and tender.

Servings: 4 - 6
