Scouts Share Foil Cooking Cuisine on Fox & Friends

Scouts-Fox-Home-SliderThe hosts of Fox & Friends were in for a treat Thursday morning when a group of culinarian Boy Scouts from the Greater New York Councils paid a visit.

The Scouts shared techniques for preparing delicious foil packet feasts, showing Fox & Friends viewers how simple and fun foil cooking can be. They demonstrated how to rustle up a hot and tasty meal with just a few simple ingredients, a heat source and a roll of heavy duty foil.

The segment’s main course was the delicious hamburger stew recipe, which is included below but also can be found in our #HandbookHacks video series.
