Shadow Steak Saute is a prepared food consumable that players cook to restore hunger and gain temporary stat benefits. As an admin, you can spawn it directly using either its item ID or GFI code when you need to stock a server's supply, test food balance, or hand out provisions.
Because it has both a numeric ID and a GFI code, you have flexibility in how you spawn it. The item does not have a blueprint variant, so the quality and blueprint flags in the spawn command will not produce an alternate form.
