How to Make Camp Hash

  1. Brown 1 lb of your chosen ground meat in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Add 1 cup of water and 1 packet (1 ounce) of instant potato soup mix. Stir well to combine.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add 2 cups of cubed potatoes (about 2 medium potatoes) and stir to coat evenly.
  5. Cover the pot and move it to the edge of the campfire (or a lower heat source) for 10-15 minutes, allowing the potatoes to soften and steam.
  6. Return the pot to medium heat and stir frequently while cooking the potatoes until they are tender (about 8-10 minutes).
  7. Season generously with 1-2 teaspoons of chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon of hot peppers, 1/2 teaspoon of dried basil, and 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning (or any other herbs and spices you prefer). Adjust seasoning to taste.
  8. Stir well to combine all flavors, and cook for another 2 minutes.
  9. Serve hot and enjoy your delicious Camp Hash!
