Last year I had a big lasagna made up and ready to throw in the oven. Got to camp and put in oven while cleaning deer/hogs. Was a big hit with garlic bread and was low effort once there.

Deer roast in Crockpot. Prep it night before and turn it on before your morning hunt. Will be done for supper. Can serve on bread or rice.

Sorry but if some of yall are going to deer camp and bringing pre cooked meals or using crock pots in south Louisiana yall are at deer camp for the wrong reason. One of the biggest parts of camp is the cooking. We grew up planning the meals during the week and getting together with neighboring camps or others staying with us after the morning hunt to start dicing onion, peeling potatoes and seasoning meat to start cooking a gravy. It was always smothered deer, duck, squirrel or pork with sides of smothered cabbage, green beans, rice dressing or potato salad. We would cook it until about 2 pm that way all we had to do was heat it when we got back from the hunt. 3-4 times a season we all bring Ribeyes and cook them over the fire. Every year on new years day at the camp we roast a pig. Sorry but if camp life existed without cooking on the porch, watching football during the day and drinking a few cold pops I may as well stay home.

I hear you, but sometimes I dont want to deal with anything at the camp other than whiskey and football watching. Especially if it is on the warm side outside. No cleaning, no cooking, no nothing but country music then football. So if a man wants to bring me some taco soup with all the fixings, I will praise his name.

Some days I want to sit over the pot and scrap it all damn day. I just depends for me.

Too much work.

Drive to camp in the morning. After hunting that morning throw a Johnny's pizza take-n-bake into the oven. Eat that while watching football. Go hunt that evening then go home and sleep in my own bed.

Brown all your meat and build a gravy in black iron pot.

Throw in oven with lid for a couple hours.

Before bed turn off oven and go to sleep.

Wake in morning stick in fridge

When you get back from hunt heat it up.

Meat will fall apart and the gravy will be awesome.

Use some cream of mushroom with garlic to build your gravy

What you described is how our camp and other camps want to be. But hard to herd chickens. What to cook that feeds one camp of 6-10 and a few visitors. Without starting at noon

So what you have to do is become the chicken herder.
Each person needs to have a role (cook,clean, procurement) is all a part of what it takes to get it all done.
We are lucky because we only have 3-4 regular members each wknd that hunt and a few buddies that stop by. But the week leading up a few text and we know who is bringing what and a general plan is put together for the menus for the wknd. We are also lucky in the sense that everyone brings more than their share and we never have to split receipts or collect money.

Here’s one I’ve used quite a few times.
Deer in a bag:
4 lbs cubed venison (hind quarter)
2 yellow onions diced
1 bag of baby carrots
1 can of rotel
1 envelope of onion soup mix
1 McCormick bag and season
1 can of beef broth
Preheat oven 350 degrees
Open bag and lay into Pyrex or baking pan
Place meat into bottom of bag then pour everything else on top and tie bag closed. Bake for 1.5 hours then eat with sliced bread. Will feed 5 or 6 hungry hunters. Good stuff.

I like to make sure I shoot a deer in the morning so I can drink and cook while everyone is hunting in the evening. By the time everyone gets back after dark there's a meal cooked and I'm too drunk to find my arse using both hands. Everyone wins

Cooking is definitely part of the camp experience, but that's not what the OP asked.
The camp is where the sauce picaunte and stews happen. Great place to learn and hone it in.

At our camp, nobody ever keeps the neck roast. So I get all the neck roasts to de-bone and freeze. I use it for my MS Pot Roast recipe. That’s the basic roast, half stick of butter, pack of au jus, pack of ranch dressing, and banana peppers in a crockpot. I’ll add some chopped onions and bell peppers as well. I typically put it all in the crockpot the night before and place it in the fridge. Then when I get up to hunt the next morning, I take it out and start the crockpot. By that night, it’s good to go. We make po-boys with it but you could also put it over rice.

Any crockpot meal is going to be the best bet in case somebody kills one in the evening. If we have to recover a deer, clean it, and cook, it’s 9pm before we end up eating. And that’s when the old guys start bitching!

Nothing wrong with using a crockpot, but I’ve learned to brown my meat hard before putting it in the crockpot. Builds more flavor and color.

That is an expression. I mean the young guys who grew up on fish sticks and goldfish. Look at you weird if you suggest we cook cow tongue in a black iron pot or you cook a steak rare. All they want are wings and fries. Don’t even drink coffee in the morning. But they work hard when needed. Just not long.
