Step-by-Step Instructions for Hobo Casserole
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and cook for about 5–7 minutes until browned. Drain excess fat.
- Add diced onion, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to the beef. Cook for 2–3 minutes until the onion is slightly softened.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup and milk until smooth.
- Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish, layer half of the sliced potatoes, then half of the beef mixture, and half of the creamy sauce. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the final layer.
- Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 50 minutes until potatoes are tender.
- Remove foil and bake for an additional 10–15 minutes until cheese is melted and golden brown.
- Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes
Using a mandoline slicer for the potatoes ensures uniform thickness, which aids in even cooking. Optionally reheat in the oven after freezing for best texture.
