Cooked Deer Meat

Overview

Cooked Deer Meat is a simple early-game recipe that requires you to either be stealthy or have a bow to hunt the deer inhabiting the Meadows and Black Forest biomes. Once you get some Deer Meat, cook it and eat it, your health will increase by 35, stamina by 12, and health regeneration by 2 hp/tick for 20 minutes.

When you want to eat your Cooked Deer Meat, simply right click it in your inventory. You can eat it together with up to two other food types, but you can’t eat more than one Cooked Deer Meat at a time.

The bonuses Cooked Deer Meat provides start out at their listed value, but wane over time. After the buff has been active for 50% of its duration, or 10 minutes, the buff icon will begin blinking, allowing you to eat another Cooked Deer Meat and refresh its effects.

Recipe

Cooked Deer Meat is easy to make, provided you can get your hands on some:

• Deer Meat

Simply throw the Deer Meat on a Cooking Station over a burning fire and wait 25 seconds. But don’t forget to grab the cooked meat. If you leave it there for too long, it will turn into Coal.

Ingredients

If you want some Cooked Dear Meat, you will first need to get the Deer Meat to cook. It’s dropped by the deer you can spot running around the Meadows and Black Forest biomes. Deer are peaceful critters that will run away whenever you get too close. As such, if you want to hunt them, you will either need to be stealthy, have a lot of stamina to catch up to your prey, or just have a bow.
