Honestly, ive only really done much off roading with 1 carb, and thats the 2150 2bbl, which, would never flow enough in its wildest dreams to do what you need. Ive seen/run quite a few 4bbls in the mud but cant really speak how they do on angles. For what its worth im an edelbrock guy.
The holley truck avenger ive heard does very well on angles and things. Contrary to popular belief theres still a ton of guys wheelin' with carbs,
Check out some jeep/crawler forums, im sure they can offer more insight into a good off road 4bbl then i can.
In general though, it sounds like youre not planning on doing any extreme ridin. Really any 4bbl is going to perform good unless you start really getting extreme on your hill climbs.
Im sure one of the EFI cheerleaders will be along shortly, but IMO EFI is nothing but a headache for very little benifit over a good carb.
