Cooking recipes

This guide covers all the items players may cook in Red Dead Redemption 2. All cooking recipes require a campfire, but all are also available from the beginning and have no unlock requirements. Nearly all require meat as an ingredient.

Most meat dishes can be seasoned with a single herb, the choice of which determines what core attribute will be affected:

• Oregano: Stamina
• Thyme: Dead Eye
• Wild mint: Health
