A hearty eater is a "trencherman," though more commonly known, perhaps, as a "glutton."
One word for an ill-tempered woman is "Xanthippe" (the name of Socrates' wife), who was known to be highly disagreeable.
How does one describe the voices of Tom Waits and Charles Bukowski? Perhaps with one of these three words:
husky: hoarse with or as if with emotion
throaty: heavy, thick, and deep as if from the throat
smoky: having a low throaty quality
