POCKET STEW


1 lb. hamburger

1/4 lb. cheddar or Jack cheese

4 potatoes

4 carrots

1 onion

Salt & pepper

Divide hamburger into 4 parts, sort of hot dog shaped. Cut cheese into 4 approximately finger size pieces (1/2" x 1/2" x 3"). Pare and slice potatoes into large French fry size pieces. Slice carrots and onion. Stuff one piece of cheese inside each hunk of hamburger and shape around. On doubled sheets of aluminum foil, place one hamburger/cheese hunk and top with salt and pepper to taste, 1/4th of the chopped onion, carrot slices and potato pieces. Seal the foil VERY WELL. All edges must be crimped tight into a pocket. Place pocket, seam down over hot coals. Cook 10 minutes, turn and cook ten minutes more. Open carefully, check for doneness. If necessary, reseal and cook a few more minutes.
