3 large one pot meals buffet style? A chilli, a curry, a paella or risotto plus disposable bbqs doing one batch of burgers?
Or get a whole bunch of bbqs plus a selection of different foods and get each person to cook their own?

What about 3 main dishes eg.
sweet & sour chicken (jars of sauce, chicken)
slow cooked ??? (something in a slow cooker)
pizza (either cooked in someone's oven or dominos)
then, rice, pasta, potatoes, peas & carrots
plus of course the salads (only a few) and the BBQ stuff
Dessert - hire a chocolate fountain and put in fresh fruits (and have some biscuits for those that don't want fruit). Don't forget to use forks / kebab sticks.

A bbq for 30 is quite an undertaking on a campsite and would take ages.
How long after you arrive are you planning on holding the party?
What about a bring and share tea - so everyone brings something and you put it out on big tables, buffet style? We did this for the jubilee a few years ago and it was a great success. I cooked a ham joint at home and took that, then made a potato salad on site. Others brought sausage rolls, pies, quiche, bread, crisps, dips, pasta and rice salads, green salad... you could also cook a few pizzas and bbq a load of chicken legs / burgers too, but by asking people to chip in it makes it much less pressure on you. It would probably only really work though if the party was quite early on in your stay...

Chilli in taco shells and chicken fajitas/wraps. Get people to bring grated cheese, tortilla chips, salsa, sour cream and salad.
