Chelle3889: Hello. You may know hobo dinners by another name but it is just a hamburger pattie placed on a piece of tinfoil. You season the hamburger pattie, place sliced potatoes, carrots, and onions on top of the pattie, wrap it up and either place it on the grill or bake it in the oven until done. They are very easy and I usually make extra potatoes and carrots and put them on another piece of tinfoil and dot with butter, season, and seal up to cook along with the hobo dinners.
