Deer Stew is a Black Forest-tier food that increases your health by 45, stamina by 15, and health regeneration by 3 hp/tick for 25 minutes. You’ll need a Cauldron to cook it by combining Cooked Deer Meat, Carrot, and Blueberries.

Acquisition

If you want to enjoy the hearty Deer Stew, you will need the following:

  • Cooked Deer Meat produced by roasting Deer Meat on a Cooking Station
  • Blueberries that grow on bushes in the Black Forest
  • Carrots, grown from the wild Carrot Seeds you can find in the Black Forest

Deer are peaceful creatures living in the Meadows and Black Forest biomes. They run away whenever you get near, so make sure you’re using stealth or a ranged weapon to hunt them for the Deer Meat they drop. Cook this Deer Meat on a Cooking Station (Wood x2) for 25 seconds to get Cooked Deer Meat. Carrots are grown with the help of the Cultivator (Corewood x5, Bronze x5) from the seeds you get when picking up a wild carrot plant in the Black Forest. And Blueberries grow naturally on bushes throughout the Black Forest.

With all these ingredients ready, take them to a Cauldron (Tin x10) and interact with it. You’ll be able to combine Cooked Deer Meat, Carrot, and Blueberries into a bowl of Deer Stew.

Uses

  • Food
  • Feast Ingredient

Food

Upon eating it, Deer Stew will increase your health by 45, stamina by 15, and health regeneration by 3 hp/tick for 25 minutes. These effects can be combined with up to two other food buffs, but you can’t eat more than one Deer Stew at once.

The buff will start out strong, but will fade over time. When there’s just 50% left in its duration, or 12.5 minutes, the buff icon will flash and you’ll be able to eat another Deer Stew to refresh its effects.

Feast Ingredient

The Bog Witch NPC trader was added to the game in a special content update that also introduced Feasts. As such, the witch sells the Serving Tray item for 140 Coins, and certain spices required for these Feasts. Deer Stew is an ingredient in on of them. Check out the Recipes section for more information.
