What is "best" is going to depend on your situation. Do you wish to
spend a
minimum time cooking? Minimum time cooking at the war but willing to spend
time cooking ahead of time? Willing to use ice chests to keep things cold
or wish to use only period preservation techniques such as salting and
pickling?

You might want to take a look at some of the files in the FOOD section
of my Florilegium such as:
campfood-msg      (84K)  3/ 3/99    Non-refrig., period food for camping events.
canning-msg       (32K) 11/11/98    Use of canning in the SCA. Directions.
cook-ovr-fire-msg (38K) 12/20/99    Cooking over open fires. Outdoor feasts.

stews-bruets-msg  (55K) 12/ 2/99    Period stews and bruets. Recipes.

I hope these give you some ideas.
