Vivienne, Varric, or Iron Bull. Maybe Dorian.
Who would you trust to be the team chef?

Yeah, I can't see Varric being a great cook. He's a city boy. He could tell you where to get the best grub in Kirkwall, but that's as far as his culinary knowledge extends. He'd be quite open about this, too, and snark at you if you tried to make him cook.
Sera's similar, but while Varric knows his limitations, Sera just goes all-out and makes these really disgusting dishes with about a billion weird ingredients. She's always really hyped to start cooking and is the type to look at a recipe, see that it calls for a dash of chili powder, and takes that to mean "dump in as much as possible". Needless to say, everyone except Sera goes hungry on the nights that she cooks.
Dorian probably knows a lot about food, and especially which wines to pair it with, but not so much about the actual cooking. He'd be a good menu planner, but you'd have to get someone else to make it for you.
Vivienne I can see being quite a competent cook. She's all about being self-sufficient, even though she prefers to not do her own dirty work. So I doubt she actually does a lot of cooking herself, but I think she'd know how to make a good meal if she had to. She'd do the camp cooking if she had to choose between that and letting Sera cook, but she dislikes stooping to such a menial task. Her solace would be ordering everyone else around as her sous-chefs. "No, darling, I said peel then slice. Do try to listen."
Blackwall, as others have mentioned, seems like he'd be really good at cooking game and camp food. He'd be the type to forage a bunch of stuff, throw it all into a pot, and turn it into something delicious. If you want a rabbit skinned, boned, and turned into a hearty stew, then Blackwall's your man. I can see him doing a lot of the party's cooking, both because he's good at it and because he's quite even-tempered.
Cole...would try very very hard. He might end up with something edible. But probably not. It might look alright, but it'd end up smelling rather disturbing.
Cass would also try hard, but I don't see her as a natural cook. I can also see her being frustrated at her lack of ability. She's mastered one or two dishes to her satisfaction, and makes them every time she cooks. She also gets grumpy if someone (probably Varric) points out how often she makes that same dish.
Iron Bull is a good cook, and is always experimenting. After all, Krem says that when they got paid in rice after one job Bull learned to make excellent rice pudding. I can see him creating a surprisingly elaborate menu for the Chargers; one of the reasons their morale is so high. I can also see him as being rather fussy while cooking, and needing to control all of the dishes he's in the process of preparing. While Bull's cooking, everyone's exiled to the table until he's done.
Finally, I see Solas as a good cook as well. He's probably the most versatile of the lot of them, too, knowing how to make a great number of dishes. He's had a very long time to learn, and he's been on his own so much that whenever he gets bored of what he's been eating he learns how to make something else. In his travels in the Fade he's observed food being made in all places and eras, so he has a very eclectic palate. I can see him as making something that puts everyone off initially, but as soon as they try it they realize it's delicious (so basically the opposite of Sera). I can see him, Bull, and Blackwall being the most frequent team chefs.

Bull would cook with the rigorous discipline of the Qun and the palate of the finest nobles. I get the feeling the Qunari diet is exotic yet practical so when they get exposed to southern cuisine they go nuts.
Bull knows what's good and the Qun would allow him to make it better. Plus he's the only companion I can see rocking a chef's apron and getting all meticulous with measurements and stuff. Sort of like the Buddhist warrior takes up cooking. And he'd be enthusiastic about eating it when it's done.

Cullen looks like a guy who grills a lot stuff. That works for me.
Druffalo steaks and potatoes.... all day.

Least dreams will have tasty food. Granted useless for satisfying hunger.

... I'd love to see Dorian cook, he has probably never even been near a stove his entire life. XD
I'm imagining it'd end up being "cold one-ingredient wine "soup", served in a glass".

Iron Bull loves food, so I'd guess he might know how to cook pretty well... but to be honest nobody in our inner circle really strikes me as chef material. ...Varric maybe? Most of our companions are either nobles who probably have rarely ever needed to cook for themselves, travelers who can cook but probably just really simple food for on-the-road that fills you up, or tavern food people.

He never had to cook his entire life no? Living with the Templars or within the Inquisition I don't think he'll have to cook himself ![]()
I'll still say BW & IB might be surprisingly good cook. And Cole might learn a thing or two.
... I can imagine a scene when Varric teach Cole to cook his first Sunny Side Omelette & Cole get very excited when he managed to do it alone for the first time ![]()

Morrigan knows how to cook apparently. But that's DA:O. Leliana too no doubt.
Hmm, since I really love to cook, I wonder what kind of things that can be made in campfire, that is easy to cook, things that won't spoil since they'll have several days journey...
Not eggs, too risky. Something with apples & potatoes & carrots probably? Leek & cabbage can stay a few days without a fridge... FOr meat, maybe game hunted locally the same day, or dried/smoked meat?

Hah.. yeah, you're probably right. Maybe I'll choose Blackwall instead. He's always outdoors on the move. Eats with his hands. Probably grills things. Or sets a nice little Fennec over the fire. ![]()

I still remember the cookie speech with Sten. Kinda ironic how they have wild parties but no cookies...

Josephine- I feel like she'd be the best cook on our team. I feel like she'd know all the Antivan cooking.
Funnily enough, I would pick Vivienne second.
Vivienne would probably have knowledge of gourmet cuisine and fancy foods. Of course, cooking with her wouldn't be cheap. She'd require the best of the best ingredients and would probably run the kitchen budget through the roof but...at least the food would be nice and fancy.
