Cooked Meat is a food item in ARK: Survival Evolved. It can be obtained by cooking Raw Meat at a  Campfire or  Industrial Grill. It takes approximately 20 seconds to craft 1 Cooked Meat at a campfire (As of version 180.04).

Usage [ ]

If eaten by a survivor, Cooked Meat replenishes 20 points of food and 8 points of health. Eating cooked meat promotes health and stamina regen.

It can also be used for taming any Carnivore. Cooked Meat replenishes the same 50 food as regular  Raw Meat to a dino being tamed, but it is not advised to use Cooked Meat for taming, as Raw Meat is twice as effective.

When fed to a tamed creature, replenishes 25 units of food and 10 points of Health.
