Comments

This recipe sounds much like the foil dinners cooked in the coals of a campfire or over the grate. In open air cooking make small packets of meat and distribute toppings to each. In this case add the veggies when you are initially making the packets. Move and turn packets occasionally so they do not burn. Check for doneness by opening a packet and then resealing.
