Tear eight 14-inch pieces of nonstick foil and lay them out nonstick-side up.

Repeat with the remaining bread and 3 pieces of foil.

Make the foil packs: Put the remaining 4 pieces of foil, buttered-side down, directly on top of the bread so the foil touches the bread and the edges line up.

Fold and crimp the edges tightly to make 4 oblong packets.
