Have you experimented with smoking as a method of preservation, 
rather than only flavoring? I've wondered if it would be a useful way 
of having meat at Pennsic without a cooler.

I haven't personally, but my apprentice has (and does).  He has taken chicken, beef, pork all to pennsic, hung them up in his shade fly then eaten them later.  He also has a period food preservation class on his website.
