11Overview22Marbled Meat is a gatherable cooking ingredient in Crimson Desert. Its in-game description reads: "Provides a savory aroma and rich flavor through balanced fat. Creates an intense flavor as juices and oils blend during grilling." Marbled Meat sits at the top tier of raw meat quality alongside Tender Meat. Despite being the most expensive raw meat, it produces identical results to cheaper meats like Tough Meat when used in any cooking recipe.44Stats77PropertyValueTypeGatherable Item, Cooking IngredientCategoryMeatSell PriceVaries by vendor99How to Obtain1010Marbled Meat can be acquired through two methods:1212Butchery vendors: Purchase from butchery merchants in towns like Hernand Town. The meat vendor restocks inventory every night at 0:00 in-game time. Resting at a cooking pot for 12 hours can speed up the restock cycle.Skinning pigs: Marbled Meat is primarily obtained by hunting and skinning pigs found in farmland areas and near settlements across Pywel.1414Uses1616Cooking1818Marbled Meat works as a substitute for any raw meat in cooking recipes across all cooking station types (Field Grill, Field Pot, Special Pot). Since the game treats all raw meat equally in recipes, Marbled Meat produces the exact same Grilled Meat, Clear Soup, Hearty Grilled Meat, and every other meat-based dish as any cheaper alternative.2020Pet Feeding2222Marbled Meat can be fed to pet dogs by dropping it on the ground near them, granting +35 Trust per feeding. Cats will not eat standard red meat.2424Best Dispatch Source: Svenholt Ranch2626The single best passive source of Marbled Meat for your camp is the dispatch mission attached to Svenholt Ranch, a ranching point of interest in the Pailune region. The ranch sits north of Pailune city and just east of the Silverwolf Mountain text on the world map, which puts it within easy reach once you have unlocked fast travel to the surrounding Pailune waypoints. Visiting the ranch in the open world adds it to your dispatch menu as a knowledge unlock, at which point you can start sending grey main members and hired workers out on its mission without ever returning to the location yourself.2828How to Farm3030The mission slot at Svenholt Ranch is labelled Marbled Meat and is specifically geared toward camp food output. Each completed run rewards a large bump in camp food resources plus a flat 50 Marbled Meat, which is the key payout for players who want to cook high-end food dishes without spending hours hunting cattle in the open world. Because the mission can be repeated on its standard dispatch cooldown, running it on rotation lets you accumulate hundreds of Marbled Meat over a single play session while you are busy with other content.3232Why it is the Best Single Source3434Most open-world Marbled Meat drops come from chance kills on large livestock and rare loot rolls from butchered creatures, which makes stockpiling for high-end recipes slow and inconsistent. The Svenholt Ranch dispatch bypasses this by guaranteeing 50 units per run, which is usually enough for several batches of the best camp food in the game. For players who want to feed a fully upgraded camp, pair the Marbled Meat dispatch with church donations in the surrounding region to stack its Conversion Bonus and further increase the per-run payout.3636Tips3838Marbled Meat is the least cost-efficient meat for cooking because it costs more from vendors but produces the same dishes. Buy Tough Meat instead if your goal is cooking.If you accidentally purchase Marbled Meat, consider selling it back for a small profit margin rather than using it in a Grilled Meat recipe.Pigs are relatively easy to hunt and can be found near farms and villages throughout the Hernand region and beyond.For pet taming, Marbled Meat works identically to cheaper meats. Use the cheapest available option unless you already have Marbled Meat in your inventory.
