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!

I'm shocked! Infiltrating a boy scout camp, getting them drunk on beer and then stealing their recipe?!?!?

I was Den Mother, back in the late 1950's and in New York City there is little opportunity to have a cook-out or overnight trip. So, we prepared something like this at my apartment, the meeting place for the Den, stuck it into the hot oven where it stayed until the meeting was almost over and then ate. The Cub Scouts loved it and we did this once a year, from what I remember.

Wow, I'm jealous! They didn't let us have beer when I was in Girl Scouts! LOL.
We made these too. You're right, they were excellent!
