Grilled Meat and Veggie Foil Packets
Report
I sense a new obsession coming on .. .and it's food grilled in foil packets! What could be more perfect for outdoor cookouts, camping trips, and upcoming long holiday weekends? Simply chop up your meat and veggies, pour the marinade over them, and you're ready to grill!

Instructions
- In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, garlic, and spices. Set aside.
- Cut 8 large pieces (about 14-16" long each) of foil and lay them out double stacked (to form sort of a plus sign shape) to start 4 grill packets. At this point you can line them with parchment paper if desired - simply put a single layer just on top of the foil. Evenly distribute the diced meat and veggies onto each stack of foil and somewhat "flatten" out the contents for even cooking. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and then finish off each packet with equal amounts of marinade drizzled right on top.
- Carefully bring together the two ends of the foil from the bottom piece so the edges meet at the center. Fold the two edges together over at least three times. Then rotate and fold up the edges on the open sides at least two to three times and crimp those together with your fingers as well. If you are throwing these onto the campfire coals (directly on the fire is not recommended) you do not want any chance of ashes making their way inside!
- Let the food marinate for a minimum of 1 to 2 hours. Grill the packets over (or in the coals of) an open fire flipping them once until the meat is cooked to desired doneness, about 20 to 25 minutes total. Can also be baked in the oven. Carefully open each foil packet to let steam release before eating. Serve as is and enjoy!
Notes
- We recommend organic ingredients when feasible.
