Those two manuscripts were published by the Early English Text Society 
as "Two Fifteenth Century Cookery Books".  They are online at:

Recipe #51 "For a Pye" is worth looking at.  The pie contains a capon 
(apparently whole), two woodcocks, and a mallard, so I think that would 
qualify as "grete".
