Did this when I went camping back in 1990... we called them Campfire
Pocketbooks. We didn't add butter, the ground beef was fatty enough. Add
some Worcestershire sauce, that makes it even better. Ours had green beans,
too. Put the foil packet right in the wood fire (that's what we had) or on
the grill. Let the packets cook for an hour. We told ghost stories and
drank beer around the fire while dinner cooked. Open the foil packets
carefully... hot steam! Was delicious!
