A guy named Trott at the Outskirt Stables will give you rupees for a piece of Raw Gourmet Meat — to a limit of three per day — but the quickest and easiest thing to do is just cook it up and sell it. These can be smashed with a sledgehammer or a heavy weapon or a Bomb rune, though the contents will then fly everywhere to reveal a variety of ores. If you at least return your investment, continue playing. Pretty much every item has multiple uses beyond selling — so depending on what you’d like to obtain or upgrade, it’s worth figuring out what you want to hoard and which items you can afford to give up.
