  3. Divide the sausage between the 4 pieces of tinfoil and place in the middle of the foil.
  4. Divide the vegetables between the foils.
  5. Sprinkle the ranch dressing over the vegetables, then drizzle a tablespoon of oil over each packet of vegetables.
  6. Add a thyme sprig to each packet and carefully pull up the sides of the tinfoil.
  7. Add a tablespoon of white wine to each packet.
  8. Pull two sides together in the middle and fold down tightly.
  9. Fold the ends up tightly to seal.
  10. Place on the grill and close the lid. Cook for 10 minutes, then turn over and continue cooking for 8 to 10 minutes until vegetables are tender.
  11. Remove and carefully open the top. CAUTION: packets contain hot steam!

Notes

  • These are easy and quick to make and can be changed up.  If you prefer beef, you can use a homemade hamburger patty or substitute meatballs.
  • You can add any vegetables that you like - cabbage, corn on the cob pieces, cauliflower, broccoli, etc.
  • This can also be frozen.  Cool completely and remove from the foil packet.  Place in a ziplock bag or air-tight container and freeze for up to 3 months.  Thaw and heat before serving.
  • These are a great option when you are camping.  The packets can be made a day or two before cooking and stored in the refrigerator till ready to grill.
