Wolf Meat

Wolf meat is a raw food ingredient dropped by wolves, with the amount depending on the wolf’s star level. It is one of the main mid-game meat ingredients from the Mountains and is used both as a food item and as a crafting component for several cooked recipes.

Wolf meat can be cooked on a Cooking Station or Iron Cooking Station to make Cooked Wolf Meat, or processed in a Cauldron into Wolf skewers and Wolf Jerky. A single piece of Wolf meat is enough for each of these recipes, with Wolf skewers requiring added Mushroom and Onion, and Wolf jerky requiring Honey. Because of this, it is a useful ingredient to stockpile if you are hunting wolves regularly.

A key limitation is that Cooked wolf meat does not count as Wolf meat for recipes that require the raw ingredient. Once it has been cooked, it cannot be used in place of the raw version for other crafting.

Wolf meat is obtained by killing wolves, and stronger wolves can drop more of it. Since wolves are dangerous and often encountered in the Mountains, gathering a steady supply usually means fighting in terrain where mobility and weather management matter.

• Dropped by wolves, up to 4 from higher-star wolves.
• Can be cooked into Cooked wolf meat.
• Can be made into Wolf skewers with Mushroom and Onion.
• Can be made into Wolf jerky with Honey.
• Cooked wolf meat cannot be substituted for raw Wolf meat in recipes.

Because wolves are aggressive and the Mountains are a hazardous biome, Wolf meat is best treated as a valuable hunting resource rather than a casual drop. Once you can safely farm wolves, it becomes an efficient ingredient for filling out your food supply and supporting several strong mountain-era meals.
