Use Classical Conditioning

Easier to do if the person stays around the same territories.

Before and during cooking, play the music to make it known that a consistent signal is being sent out as a recognizable pattern. This can cause fear in itself, but we want to persuade anything curious that yes, this does mean to stay away.

When animals approach, attack them on sight in the area. If they watch from afar, no worries that where we want them to be.

AFTER you are done cooking, pack up your stuff, but rather than leaving food, leave poisoned or otherwise painful food that doesn't have to kill, simply teach the animal that even though the food smells good, it's very much worth their while to avoid it at all costs. As mentioned in the comments, animals may be turned off from foods with a number of simple spices (coffee, cumin, peppers) rendering it inedible to them.

Over time when the sound is played, intrusions occur less, and scavengers learn to avoid any food left behind. It may take some time to establish, but the animals may teach their foundyoung to avoid the sounds going forward.

Consistency will be required until this new natural order is established. Any instrument could be used most likely, but deep notes, drums, and the like will carry further than something high and sharp like a flute. Though perhaps they only want the sound to go out so far, consider how far reaching the smell of food would be, the same wind will also be carrying the sound to tell animals not to get interested in it.
