About

Raw Prime Meat is a consumable dropped by most medium to large dinosaurs and other creatures when killed. It restores significantly more food than Raw Meat, making it valuable early-game nutrition before you have cooked meals or kibble.

It spoils rapidly without preservation. Cook it into Prime Meat Jerky in a Campfire or Industrial Cooker to extend its shelf life, or store it in a Preserving Bin with salt. Spawn it directly with its item ID or GFI code; no blueprint version exists.

Frequently Asked Questions
