Ball of meats make me strong!

Wolfgang

Meatballs is a Meat Food item cooked in the Crock Pot by combining any Meats and fillers excluding Inedibles. However, adding 3.0 units of Meats will result in Meaty Stew instead. It takes 15 seconds to cook and 10 Days to Spoil.

Adding 2 or more Monster Foods will result in Monster Lasagna, unless Twigs are also added, which will then result in Wet Goop. Adding Honey will result in Honey Nuggets or Honey Ham. Adding a Mandrake will result in Mandrake Soup. Adding Eggplant and another Vegetable will result in Stuffed Eggplant. Using less than 1.0 units of Meats and using at least two Ice as fillers will result in Bunny Stew.

Prototype Tips[]

  • Meatballs are a decent starter recipe for Hunger, especially when only working with Monster Meat. There are better alternatives, such as Meaty Stew, Honey Ham, Bacon and Eggs, that provide more Health and Hunger gain, or longer spoilage time.
    • Attention should be paid to the ingredients used as depending on the recipe, meatballs may provide little to no hunger over their components (e.g. 1 Meat and 3 Carrots will provide no additional hunger).

Placeholder Trivia[]

  • Wolfgang's quote "Balls of meat make me strong" is a reference to Team Fortress Two's Heavy, who can say "Bologna makes me strong" while eating his bologna sandwich
  • During the Pig Fiesta event in the Hamlet DLC, Meatballs take on a more festive appearance.
