Overview

Bird Meat is a cooking ingredient in Crimson Desert classified under the Meat category of gatherables. It comes from larger avian creatures and features a tender texture with a mild meaty aroma that pairs well with any dish. Bird Meat is the heavier counterpart to Lean Bird Meat, yielding richer cuts from bigger game birds.

In-Game Description

"Pairs well with any dish due to its tender texture and mild meaty aroma. Fits various recipes perfectly with its delicate profile."

Item Properties

Where to Find

Bird Meat is acquired through two methods:

• Skinning Large Birds: Hunt and skin large birds in the open world. Bigger avian species such as eagles and hawks yield Bird Meat when processed. These creatures are rarer than the small birds that provide Lean Bird Meat, so expect to search more carefully.

• Butchery Vendors: Purchase from butcheries in major settlements. The butcher in Hernand stocks Bird Meat alongside other poultry cuts.

Large birds tend to roam mountainous terrain and open plateaus across the continent. They can often be spotted circling overhead before landing. A ranged attack while they are airborne or grounded will bring them down for skinning.

Cooking Uses

Bird Meat functions as a versatile cooking ingredient. Its mild flavor and tender texture make it compatible with a wide range of recipes. Like other raw meat types, Bird Meat can be grilled at a bonfire for a straightforward Health recovery meal. It also works in combination recipes that call for poultry, producing dishes with moderate healing and occasional status buffs.

Tips

• Bird Meat and Lean Bird Meat come from different-sized birds. If you only find small flocks, you will get Lean Bird Meat instead.

• Butcheries restock periodically, so return regularly to top up your supply without needing to hunt.

• Grilling Bird Meat at a bonfire is one of the fastest ways to produce healing provisions while exploring remote regions.
