About

Cooked Prime Meat is prepared from raw prime meat and serves as a high-quality food source for survivors and tamed creatures. It restores more hunger than standard cooked meat and provides temporary buffs when consumed by players.

Spawn it with the item ID 249 using GiveItem, or use the GFI code 249 with cheat gfi 249 1 0 0 to add it directly to your inventory. Since it has a GFI code, the GFI method lets you control stack size and quantity more flexibly than the standard item command.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the Cooked Prime Meat GFI short code?
The GFI code for the Cooked Prime Meat is PrimalItemConsumable_CookedPrimeMeat. GFI matches the item by its short blueprint name, so cheat gfi PrimalItemConsumable_CookedPrimeMeat 1 0 0 is the fastest way to spawn it without typing the full blueprint path.
What's the Cooked Prime Meat class name?
The class name for the Cooked Prime Meat is PrimalItemConsumable_CookedPrimeMeat_C. Class names end in _C and identify the item's blueprint at runtime, which makes them useful for spawn tools, mods, and RCON macros.
Can I spawn the Cooked Prime Meat over RCON or on a dedicated server?
Yes. Send the same command through RCON or your control-panel console: cheat gfi PrimalItemConsumable_CookedPrimeMeat 1 0 0. If your tool already runs with admin context, drop the leading "cheat". It works the same on hosted, self-hosted, and RCON setups.
Is the Cooked Prime Meat blueprint path case-sensitive?
Yes. "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Consumables/PrimalItemConsumable_CookedPrimeMeat.PrimalItemConsumable_CookedPrimeMeat'" must be typed exactly, including capitalization and the wrapping quotes. Copy it from this page to avoid a typo that returns an empty spawn.
How do I open the console to spawn the Cooked Prime Meat?
On PC, press Tab to open the admin console, paste the command, and press Enter. On Xbox and PlayStation, open the pause menu and use the on-screen command bar. Then drop in the Cooked Prime Meat spawn code from this page.
What is the Cooked Prime Meat class used for in mods or spawn tools?
Spawn managers, loot-table editors, and RCON macros reference the Cooked Prime Meat by its class PrimalItemConsumable_CookedPrimeMeat_C or GFI PrimalItemConsumable_CookedPrimeMeat. Both uniquely identify it in ARK: Survival Ascended.
How do I spawn multiple Cooked Prime Meat at once?

How do I spawn the Cooked Prime Meat in ARK: Survival Ascended?
