# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 -
Set the oven to 400°F, ensuring it reaches full temperature before baking.
02 -
Tear two aluminum foil sheets, each 18 inches in length, and lay them on a clean workspace.
03 -
Wash potatoes and slice into 1/4-inch rounds. Peel and slice onion into thin half-rings. Peel and cut carrots into 1/4-inch rounds.
04 -
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and break apart, cooking until browned and fully cooked for 8-10 minutes.
05 -
In a large bowl, combine potatoes, carrots, onion, and corn. Sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Toss to coat evenly.
06 -
Drain excess grease from the cooked beef. Return skillet to heat and stir in Worcestershire and soy sauces. Blend thoroughly then remove from heat.
07 -
Place half the seasoned vegetables in the center of each foil sheet. Top with half the beef mixture and one tablespoon butter per packet.
08 -
Fold sides of foil upward, then tightly seal the top and bottom edges to enclose ingredients and prevent leakage.

Arrange foil packets on a baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, until potatoes are fork-tender and flavors meld.

Carefully open hot packets to release steam and serve immediately, enjoying each portion directly from the foil.

For even cooking, ensure potatoes and carrots are sliced uniformly thin before layering in packets.
