Answer: Both! When Melissa Perello, chef and owner of Frances in San Francisco, has a rare weekend off, she camps at Steep Ravine in Stinson Beach, California. For an easy dinner, she wraps combinations of fresh produce in aluminum foil and throws these “hobo packs” in the ashes of the campfire to cook slowly. We love her combination of diced potato, bacon and corn gently tossed with salt and pepper. Pin It
