First time to this Base? Not knowing the locality makes it a little harder, but you are doing the right thing by trying to get insight.

Get the crew to get the menu "set", not srictly by what but by every ingredient in the meals.
Divide list into provisions taken with you: Spices, light and compact, hard to get, essential. Suggest these go with you...

Considering taking meats from States: Several threads address vac-pack, frozen, dry ice and packing options(carry on vs checked).

Computerize printed list with check off when packed is essential, otherwise you are on the hook wondering where Walmart isolated.

Printed list with division of contents to crew (Grocery separated in "departments, Alcohol ).


Know what likes/dislikes entire crew has in case substitutions necessary.

(A Detailed packing list for new travelers can help to reduce overpacking, allowing space for provisioning items.) I find this helps having essential items while reducing overpacking.
