Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 medium, diced Onion
- 1 medium, diced Green bell pepper
- 1 cup, shredded Cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon Ketchup
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 Sandwich buns
- 2 tablespoons, softened Butter
- 4 sheets, large Aluminum foil
Instructions
Preheat your grill, campfire, or oven to medium heat (approximately 375°F).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, diced onion, diced green bell pepper, shredded cheddar cheese, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly with clean hands or a spoon until evenly combined.
Slice the sandwich buns in half and spread a thin layer of softened butter on the inside of each half.
Divide the meat mixture into four equal portions. Place one portion of the meat mixture onto the bottom half of each sandwich bun, shaping it to fit the bun.
Place the top half of the bun over the meat mixture to form a complete sandwich.
Wrap each sandwich tightly in a sheet of aluminum foil, ensuring the edges are sealed to retain moisture and prevent leaks.
Place the wrapped sandwiches onto the grill, over the campfire, or in the oven. Cook for approximately 15-20 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the meat is fully cooked and the buns are toasted.
Carefully remove the sandwiches from the heat and let them rest for a few minutes before unwrapping and serving.
Serve hot and enjoy your delicious Hobo Sandwiches!
