- Hobo Casserole -- Fantastic Comfort Meal
Hobo Casserole
1 pound lean ground beef
½ yellow onion, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
2 tsp minced garlic
3 to 4 medium-sized Russet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
1 (10.75-ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 (10.75-ounce) can cream of chicken soup
1 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
¼ cup milk
1 tsp Cajun seasonings
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Salt and pepper, to taste
French fried onions (for topping)
Optional toppings: sliced green onions, chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F. Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned and cooked through, breaking it up as it cooks.
3. Add the diced onion, green bell pepper, and minced garlic to the skillet with the ground beef.
4. Sauté until the vegetables are softened and fragrant. It’s not required, but add a ¼-½ cup of water to the ground beef mixture if it seems dry.
5. In a separate bowl, mix together the cream of mushroom soup and cream of chicken soup, milk, Worcestershire sauce and Cajun seasonings until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
6. Layer the sliced potatoes in 2 even layers on the bottom of the dish. Add more salt and pepper to taste.
7. Spoon the ground beef and vegetable mixture over the potatoes.
8. Pour the cream of mushroom soup mixture over the beef and vegetables, spreading it out evenly.
9. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the casserole.
10. Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
11. Remove the foil and sprinkle French fried onions on top of the casserole.
12. Continue baking for an additional 5 minutes, or until the onions are golden brown and the casserole is heated through.
13. Once done, remove the casserole from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes.
14. Garnish with sliced green onions or chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
15. Slice, serve and enjoy!
The Hobo Casserole looks awesome! I remember seeing Hobos when I was growing up in the 50's and 60's. Sometimes they would walk down the alley behind our house looking for food on the garage cans. My father explained to us that there was a difference in Hobos and bums. He said the Hobos would travel from town to town on the trains looking for work and odd jobs to make a little money. During the depression era many of them had homes and families in other towns and would try to make enough money to send some home. They weren't seeking hand outs and were willing to do any work they could get. The bums were just beggars and didn't want to work and mostly begged for money to buy alcohol and/or drugs. He taught us to respect the hobos.
Thanks very much, your dad was right. I wish that I could have said it that good in the video.
I remmeber we had them
In 70s. They’d ride the rails . Our town had one, delis nobles was his name. He came in my dads business and was nice , my dad would give him food or probably a little $ but he’d sweep up etc
Seems most smalls towns had one.
Great casserole. I live by myself and only eat at home. With this one and most recipes you share with us, I always take some to my neighbor who is 85 and doesn't cook. She loved this one.
Thanks very much Judy
This dish looks delicious. I love one dish casseroles, great for leftovers. For the last four years I have loomed (“knitted”) winter hats while watching tv and donated them in late fall to homeless shelters. I applaud your work in connection with the homeless. Keep up the great meals!’ Audrey from Alabama ❤
Wonderful! Thanks very much
I had to make this in home ec in jr high. We called it poor mans casserole. My father and uncle road the rails when they were kids ( they didn't have a home). So much love and respect for them. Great video Calvin
Thanks very much Sandra. I bet that your dad can tell some great stories.
Calvin, you cook as well as Marie. I'm sure she brags on your cooking too. I read some of the comments about the difference between hobos and bums. I don't remember SeeIng too many hobos growing up but I would hear about them every once in awhile from my grandparents. Now a days there are too many begging for a hand out. Not in our tiny town but in the larger city near by. Our church has what we call homeless bags that are filled with food and essentials, that way they get something good.
Thanks very much, that is a good idea that your church has
I live in Washington State. In the 50's and early 60's , we would make hobo stew in a three pound coffee can at the end of our driveway. Just us kids. The stew was fantastic. We also had hobos the lived down the railroad tracks. The one man my mom gave food to would tell us kids to never go near the camp. I love this kind of food. Also enjoy your channel.
Thanks very much
Fabulous photos of the food in the beginning!!! Love the Hobo story! I've never seen it in the store but I wonder if they make cream of beef soup. I think you would have more than hobo's lining up to get that meal. God Bless, Deb 😇 p.s. Hi Sweet Marie, at the end! 💖
I've never heard of that either.
Thanks very much
My Mother when I came home for lunch from my job I would ask her what she was cooking it smelled delicious she said it was stone soup so with eyebrows arching upwards I said really because I didn’t see no stones in but she told the story and great story it was. I’m sure if anyone who lives down south or maybe other places knew or knows what stone soup is. I miss listening to old folks stories. Have a great week ❤️
I don't remember stone soup but I will check on it.
Don’t know if you ever watched Little House on The Prairie but there was one episode. Laura Ingalls was sick so her mother taught her class at school. But Ma Ingall’s told a story about this one man in the community had one potato, so he started going door to door asking if people had any vegetables but nobody would oblige him mmm. So he went to the middle of the town and built a fire put his kettle on and some water put a little salt in. People kept watching him & started to feel bad for him until one might have brought a carrot, one a onion, then pretty soon others started bringing things to add to th kettle it turns he really didn’t ha e a potato but a stone but someone did bring a potato. All he had was a stone but by the time everyone came an added something the moral of the story always be kind to
Other with home or homeless because you met know whether you might find yourself in a situation like that. If you have something to spare please 🙏 share. That’s how Stone soup came along because others started bringing things all he initially had was a stone and that’s what he throwed in his kettle. Alway when you buy & it’s where you can buy two of everything you never know what circumstance you may be faced With
@@normarutledge very nice story. Thanks for sharing that with us. I've don't remember ever seeing that episode.
Calvin and Marie
This casserole looks delicious. Thank you for sharing this recipe. I know my husband and I will love this dish.
Our pleasure! Thanks very much
Wow that sizzle when you took it out of the oven! I'm going to have to try this just due to your enthusiasm, Calvin. Hobo stories always remind me of that old Roger Miller song. Completely different situation to the homelessness of today💔
Thanks very much Terry
The Hobo Casserole looks so good. Calvin, you did a great job putting this recipe together. Thank you for sharing it with us. ❤
You are so welcome. Thanks very much
Good afternoon Calvin and Marie. The Hobo Casserole looks absolutely delicious 😋. Thanks for sharing this recipe. Have a Blessed Day 😊
Thank you! You too!
Never heard of this type of casserole before, but it sure does look delicious, Mr. Calvin. Will have to give it a try. Thanks so much. I pray you and Mrs. Marie have a wonderful week.
It was very delicious. Thanks very much
Looks delicious Mr. Calvin. Enjoyed your Hobo story there use to be this little old man that would hang around the shop. He was always walking somewhere but the odd thing about him is he wasn’t per say nasty but he looked like a bum and not that clean he never had a vehicle but people would always especially back then those that knew him would. You would have thought he was nasty and always picking at his skin but when he needed a
little a little money people would always give him something to do but when he passed away my Dad found out because the man lived by himself but he did have family close by but he had a speech problem because he died at home I believe or got sick and died at home or hospital but when people those that knew him he must have had a will or not but when they started searching his house to their surprised he wasn’t as poor as he seemed they found where he store money in canning jars in thee block foundation of his house almost a half of million he had saved his entire life. The old saying never judge a book 📖 by its cover. Your recipe looks delicious 😋 ❤️🙏✝️
Interesting story, thanks for sharing
I had all the ingredients, so I made this casserole tonight, and it was a hit with my whole family. Thank you for the dinner idea. I get in a rut sometimes.
You are so welcome!
Hi Marie & Calvin,that casserole is a keeper for sure.Thank you for sharing.I so enjoy your recipes.Have a wonderful week! ❤😋❤️
You are so welcome Linda. Thanks very much
Good morning Calvin and Marie, I love casseroles. Thank you for sharing,I can't wait to make it....have a wonderful day sending you prayers and sunshine 🌞 your way ❤
Good morning Natalija. Thanks very much
I love comfort cooking! My favorite is posole, a pork and hominy stew with onions, tomatoes and chile.
Sounds great!
I'm cooking this for my husband tonight. I sure hope he likes it. It was fun cooking along with your video.
Sounds great! Thanks very much
A lot of them do not want to be in shelters, or in organized apartments that are subsidized, because there are rules that must be followed. What a great cook you are Calvin. Also, you look so handsome with your haircut. Marie is a very fortunate woman!
Thanks very much Karen
The casserole looks delicious. I liked hearing the hobo stories and also the difference between hobos & homeless. You are spot on. I appreciate you typing out the recipe.
It was delicious. Thanks very much
That recipe looks really good. I will try it soon. Have a great day!!
Thank you! You too!
My wife and I made this tonight for dinner we added a can of drained peas & carrots, it turned out really good! Thanks for this video>
Fantastic! Thanks very much
That looks Absolutely Delicious!!! We always took them with us camping with us!!! God Bless Us All!!!
Amen. Lori
Thanks very much Lori
Good day Calvin and Marie,
That certainly fixes the bill. Thank you so much for the recipe.❤💕🌷
I over did it yesterday may I ask a favor of you . Please pray for me I'm a horrible pain.
Much love,
Rennie
Praying for you Rennie. It's easy to over do it especially this time of the year.
Take care of yourself,
Marie and Calvin
@@SouthernCountryLiving
Thank you for your prayers I appreciate them more than you know. ❤💕🤗
It's easy to over do it, then the next morning you're like oh my Lord what have I done to my body.?
Much love,
Rennie
That meal looks fantastic just the way I love to cook. And Calvin love to listen to your stories as well. We have very few homeless here but when the trains were here they would live down by the tracks no one bothered them at all. They just stayed awhile and moved on. So can't wait to try this meal.
Thanks very much Sue
Looks great!
Thanks!
Hi, yes comfort food for sure. I really liked how you layered the casserole. Marie's plate looked delicious with the veggies. Yummy.
Thanks so much! 😊
Calvin you are quiet the chef. I will definitely be making this version of the Hobo casserole this week. I have never put Cajun seasoning in mine. But I can tell by the taste test it is delicious. I love casseroles and simple comfort foods. Marie’s plate looked scrumptious with the fresh vegetables. Another great video. Thank you for sharing with us.
Thanks very much
I made this today, and both my husband and I really liked it! thank you for sharing this recipe!
Wonderful! Thanks very much

I need to make this for me and my Sweetie. Thank you for another great video.
You are so welcome
Good looking casserole, y'all. ❤❤❤
Thanks very much
I've heard of hobo casserole before but never tried it. Homeless still do the same way. I see them alot where I live then those leave and different homeless show up. I guess they are being run off by the police. I see a police car sitting out there where they stay sometimes so I guess they are wanting them away from housing areas. Most I have come across are on drugs. There are kids where I live which concerns me them coming in contact with drugs or needles. When I was a little girl my Dad used to give his change to a blind beggar that was old. Every day he sit outside a shopping center no matter how cold it was. I asked Daddy why he always gives to that man he said you never known when your entertaining angels. I've never forgotten that. I give at times to the homeless even if it's just a meal I bought. Most the time they are thankful. There used to be an old Vietnam Vet that was homeless and he never asked for anything. I would buy him an Arizona tea and cheese crackers or sometimes a meal. He called me the tea lady. I haven't seen him since the pandemic shots started. He told me he was leaving this part of town because to many druggies were showing up. Looks good Calvin.
Thanks very much Debbie.
This is a different recipe. I’m going to try it this week. Thanks for sharing.you made me hungry
My pleasure 😊 Thanks very much
Yum! Looks delicious! Enjoy. This is going to be my dinner tomorrow. Cant wait. God bless.
Thanks very much, we really enjoyed this meal
Since I don't eat meat, I think I will try this recipes with cooked lentils and then saute the onion and pepper. For the cream soup....I will make a base with oat milk, and then top with my plant based cheese recipe. I think it will be tasty. Thanks for the idea.
Great idea!
Yummy 😋 meal 🥘
Thank you 😋
We’re making this today and it smells wonderful!
Thanks very much
You guys always make the best looking food!! My mouth just waters, thinking about it. Thank you for sharing ❤

Sounds great! Thanks very much
We haven't had dinner yet and my mouth is watering I wish we were having the Hobo casserole. Joan in Fl.
We really enjoyed this meal. Thanks very much
Your channel has been such a blessing to me. I have a eating disorder where I'm scared to try new foods. So I've been finding it more and more difficult over the last few years to find food i like. So much food i liked before has gone down in quality. You've given me so much to try and I've really been enjoying it so much. Thank you.
Thanks very much
Mmmmmmm, that sure looks good!
Thanks very much
Loved your old hobo stories. I remember back in late 50's, there were always kids dressing up as hobos for Halloween. Think I would have some cornbread and maybe green beans with this. Printed your recipe and will probably make this next week.
Thanks very much Martha. We really enjoyed this meal.
Can't wait to try this
Thanks very much
That looks delicious! I love a good casserole.
My late MIL made a casserole very similar to that with the addition of sliced carrots mixed with the potatoes and minus the French-fried onions on top. I don't know if she called it hobo casserole, though; I just remember it as "Mama's Hamburger Casserole" because that's what my DH always called it.
Thanks very much, yes this recipe has a lot of different names
Hello I just watched this video for second time it looks really good I going to make it this weekend.. I don't think so I'm going to try the fried onions on top cuz I don't like those but I know it's going to be good without them I also made the cabbage and potatoes recipe that you posted a few weeks back that was delicious I like your guys's Channel I Came Upon it about a month ago and I like the way that you guys do your cooking and you have fun with your daughter and grandkids❤
