FOIL STEW

Steps:

• Put all foil stew ingredients in the middle of a large rectangle of heavy duty aluminum foil.Bring the foil up so that the ingredients are resting inside in a slightly elongated pile.
• Fold the top edges down together about 1 inch and crease. Fold over and do it again, and then once again. It helps to hold the foil stew up as you do this, because this allows you to keep some extra space in the packet, which helps in the cooking process. In other words, the folds themselves need to be very tight, but the foil stew inside should have a little wiggle room.
• Push the two ends down so that your foil stew is safely in the middle of the packet.
• Fold or roll the ends tightly.
• Get a second piece of foil and repeat steps A-D. Ready for the fire.
• To bake over an open fire, simply place your prepared foil stew on a bed of coals for 25-50 minutes, turning every 10-15 minutes. Check stew after 30 minutes, or 5 minutes after you begin to smell it cooking. See Cooking Time in NOTES below for more information.
