[Sca-cooks] Camp cooking challenge

I think we all probably like to cook period food in camp, and a lot of us
like to cook over the fire as well. But given the fact that Pennsylvania is
being unusually rainy so far this summer (at least in Central and Eastern
PA), outdoor cooking at Pennsic might be iffy.
So I had a rather selfish thought (because I plan to mine this thread for
ideas for our own camp's meal planning):
Can we come up with a meal or even a single dish that would be able to
either be cooked outside on the fire or cooked inside on a camp stove or two in
the same form?
Or, a meal that could be cooked on the fire and an alternate meal involving
the same main ingredients (primarily the perishable ones) that could be
cooked on the camp stove indoors if it happened to be raining that day?
As an example, Drye Stewe for Beef in a dutch oven in the fire pit (beef,
onions, pepper, mace, cloves, red wine) could easily turn into a period
soup/stew on the camp stove by adding some broth or water to the wine, cutting up
the meat, changing the spices slightly, and maybe adding some vinegar or
bread crumb thickening, etc (I don't have a specific named dish in mind, but
it's probably close to a Bukenade.)
