How to Make Hobo Adobo Foil Dinner Rsc

  1. **Marinate the Beef:** In a medium bowl, combine 1 lb ground beef, 1/2 cup adobo sauce (from canned adobo peppers), 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Mix well and marinate for at least 1 hour (longer is better!).
  2. **Strain the Beef:** After marinating, drain off excess liquid from the beef mixture using a colander.
  3. **Prepare the Potatoes:** In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp olive oil and 1 tbsp lemon juice. Add 2 lbs small red potatoes (halved or quartered if large), 1 red bell pepper (chopped), and 1/2 cup green onions (chopped). Toss to coat.
  4. **Assemble the Foil Packets:** Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Tear off 8 large sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil.
  5. **Form the Beef Patties:** Divide the marinated ground beef into 8 equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty.
  6. **Add Cheese:** Place approximately 1 oz of shredded Monterey Jack cheese onto the center of each beef patty.
  7. **Layer the Packets:** Place one beef patty (cheese-side down) on each foil sheet. Top with 1/8 of the potato mixture. Place another beef patty on top and press gently to seal.
  8. **Seal and Bake:** Fold the foil over to create a sealed packet. Crimp the edges tightly to prevent leaks. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the beef is cooked through.
