Thank you for reporting on the potage. I was curious how that was going to work. :-)
What I have done fairly happily in the past is make the potage up and chill it well (for camping events, actually freeze it) and just reheat it onsite. If I was to use a crockpot instead of a camp stove, I think I would avoid the freezing and just keep it in a cooler until about 2 hours before dinner, then crock it.
I do NOT recommend putting it in a pot with a lid that does not latch closed, driving it someplace and stopping short enroute. There was one Accademia session that did not get all the potage I had made. That incident might be part of what finally provoked me into making a crockpot carrier so at least any disasters would be contained. (If you have a round crockpot, I'd be happy to loan you the carrier any time.)
