YourMom23	Zombie Meat Recipes Feb 17 2010, 1:47 AM EST Ever since 182crazyking clearly established that Zombie meat would be one of the most viable and prolific caloric sources available after the worldwide outbreak, I thought it would be apropos to start a recipe thread. I'm thinking that long-cooked stews and chile-type one pot meals would be the most sanitary and appetizing. I am thinking of the best way to make a zed-based Georgian Khorkali soup...that would be freaking delicious! Post your ideas, simple or complex, it could one day save your life AND increase the quality of your life. Become a provider for your whole family or survival group unit!

YOU ARE MY PERSONAL JEEBUS!!! Alright, now for my part of the deal. Five recipies, eh? OK, I'll post them tomorrow after school. I have some recipies from the book Zombies for Zombies by David P. Murphy. You seriously are hilarious. Post reply Do you find this valuable?
182crazyking	2. RE: Zombie Meat Recipes Feb 17 2010, 10:35 AM EST WARNING: Undead flesh is EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS AND TOXIC. Handle raw zombie meat with EXTREME CAR and the CORRECT GEAR. Make sure you cook zombie meat to A HIGH TEMPERATURE to kill 100% of the virus! WARNING: Although no tests have been completed, undead meat is MOST LIKELY TOXIC. Use undead flesh ONLY when you have NO OTHER FOOD and can not scavenge or grow ANY OTHER FOOD SOURCE. Meh, I got ten miniutes, so I can post one. Holiday Zombie Balls (NO, it's not what you think) Scavenge or make a tray with circular holes in the bottom, like an ice cube tray (only with curcular holes). Cut some zombie meat to the rough size of those holes. Put the meat in an oven or over a fire; take it out when it's nice and crispy golden-brownish grey. Use a meat thermometer to make sure you're fully cooked. Take the meat semicircles out of the tray using a spatula if you can scavenge one. If you can find some icing or frosing (whipped cream is an OK substitute), glue two semicirles together with it. Ta-da! You have a nice holiday treat with your survivors! (PS. Don't believe him! HE esablished that it would be viable, and I said it would give you kuru ^_^) Post reply Do you find this valuable?
Whybother08	3. RE: Zombie Meat Recipes Feb 17 2010, 10:52 AM EST My dad has a recipe for a certian type of fish that I think can apply to this. Ingredients: 1/2 pound zombie meat Fist-sized rock 1 cup of chicken broth Salt Pepper 2 Sage Leaves 1. Set a pot of water up to boil. 2. When water boils, throw meat and rock into the water. 3. After five minutes, pour broth in. 4. 30 minutes later, take meat and rock out, season both with salt, pepper, and a sage leaf. 5. Throw the meat away and eat the rock! ------------------ (Emulating George Lopez) EATING ZOMBIE MEAT? TA LOCO EATING ZOMBIE MEAT! Post reply 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you find this valuable?

182crazyking	4. RE: Zombie Meat Recipes Feb 17 2010, 5:47 PM EST Another of my 5 recipes (this is 2/5). Zed Breakfast This one works if you could scavenge a blender and power it with batteries or a generator (muscle-powered). Dry the meat so that there's no moisture or blood (AND MAKE SURE TO PRECOOK IT), but make sure it ain't jerky-dry. Place the meat inside your blender, and add hardboiled eggs if you can find some. Turn it to high and wait until the meat is good and chopped. Empty the meat(/eggs) onto a plate or tray. Then take a loaf of bread (wheat is OK, but for a real treat, use white if you can find it) and drape it over the mix. If you can find pancake batter and a way of making pancakes, then use that for a nice treat. If possible, add some syrup and apple juice. Enjoy your breakfast! Post reply Do you find this valuable?
YourMom23	5. RE: Zombie Meat Recipes Feb 17 2010, 7:11 PM EST Corpse Confit Confit is one of the classic peasant recipes of southern France and Spain, and because of the same needs of the original inventors, would make a lovely option for your choice of 'meat.' It seems to have been originally popularized by shepherds who would spend a lot of time with herds away from regular food sources. So, they could slaughter one sheep, and through the confit process could prepare a good, tender source of meat that could be preserved for up to a month in a wax-sealed clay jar buried underground. You could have your own corpse confit caches buried around your patrol zones, and take a relaxing moment with your friends to enjoy a traditional old world recipe. What you need -- a pot with a reasonably tight cover...dutch ovens or clay pots are all good. Olive oil is also very important because of its anti-microbial properties though animal fat can work. The biggest trick is that you need to layer the 'meat' and oil so it's fairly tight in whatever choice of cooking pot you use, then cover whatever space is left with the remaining oil or fat. It can be prepared with no spices, but if you can get your hands on salt, pepper, bay leaves, citrus, basil, or paprika, it would make the 'meat' all the more delicious. Once you have the pot prepared, cooking is simple -- If you're using a modern heat source, keep it in an oven or on a stove at low heat, it never needs to get above 250 farenheit. Traditionally, it would be left covered in fireplace coals and rocks overnight. You let it cool and bury it -- it could also be weighted down in a slow flowing river. When you want some 'meat,' take as many pieces as you want out of the pot, then re-cover and re-seal if possible. You can eat it straight, but it's best if you toast it lightly to let all the drippings seep out of the 'meat.' Fall off the bone goodness! Post reply Do you find this valuable?
YourMom23	6. RE: Zombie Meat Recipes Feb 17 2010, 7:17 PM EST Oh and I realize that it's technically a low temperature recipe, but it's cooked for hours and has hundreds of years of history of being extremely resistant to food poisoning of any sorts. You can always test your recipes on refugees. If it's no good for you to eat, trade it for other goods. Say it's...chinchilla or something. Post reply Do you find this valuable?
zachy_vengeance	7. RE: Zombie Meat Recipes Feb 17 2010, 9:35 PM EST If a zombie is caused by a virus, would heating the meat really destroy the virus? Sure it would kill any bacteria, but viruses are just DNA/RNA and protein, and can survive very harsh environments. So couldn't somebody get infected by eating the cooked infected meat? I wouldn't try it. Post reply Do you find this valuable?

Although someone should make something to purify certian toxins out of things like zombie meat. That'd be cool, huh? ... Runs to the lab Post reply Do you find this valuable?

And all living things have a nucleic acid...except prions (and I'm not going to debate whether a virus is alive or not, prions are even more iffy) But as to eating the dead flesh of the recently undead...I'd rather eat dirt.

YourMom23	10. RE: Zombie Meat Recipes Feb 17 2010, 10:26 PM EST " But as to eating the dead flesh of the recently undead...I'd rather eat dirt." My dad always told me that if you're being hunted, if immediate escape isn't possible the best recourse is to become the hunter. They want to eat me...so they're fair game. Also, I suppose it would be an extremely good use for those friends we all have who say to us, "Oh, man, if I ever get bitten, do me in before I turn into one of those things." They get bitten...Bam! Kick it up a notch! Dinner for a week. Save a friend's dignity AND increase your food stores. A win-win situation. Oh, I should really stress that a full-body water resistant suit is very important for the butchering process, at least something like a plastic painter's jumpsuit with a face-mask...plus you need to fully drain the body and remove entrails. You can use that stuff later to dump into the water supply of the fortified town that didn't help you when you were in bad shape a few weeks earlier. Post reply 1 out of 1 found this valuable.

ArielT	12. RE: Zombie Meat Recipes Feb 17 2010, 10:36 PM EST Cannibalism makes me a bit queasy. You were talking about butchering the meat. Can we hang the zombie upside down and slit its throat to drain the blood, like with cattle? How long before the blood is completely clotted in the dead body? If it's still present, does it present a problem? Post reply Do you find this valuable?
182crazyking	13. RE: Zombie Meat Recipes Feb 17 2010, 10:55 PM EST "Cannibalism makes me a bit queasy." ..And yet you were able to make the rest of that post. Whatever, here's recipie 3/5! And to those who don't know, I made a bet with YourMom23. I said that if he made a thread about zombie recipies, then I would find 5 recipies for it. sigh ZedBurger Helper A classic. Preheat the oven to 410 degrees. Take around a half pound of zombie meat and warm it up in a microwave/fire if it's cold. Chop it in a blender until you have something resembling ground beef. Have the chef [God help him] squish the meat into individual balls (the recipies serves 3-7). Then arrange the balls on a peice of clean metal and squish them slightly so they aren't too round. Put the metal in an oven and cook for thirty miniutes or until fully cooked. Add buns if you can get them and use the condiments that you've probably scavenged by now.

A win-win situation." The eating of them afterwords does anything but "save their dignity." At any rate, I'm willing to bet that, whether or not you currently believe that you'd easily be able to drain, butcher, prepare and eat zombies, random corpses and and your friends, 90% or more will chicken out of it in the end.

YourMom23	15. RE: Zombie Meat Recipes Feb 17 2010, 11:09 PM EST Don't worry about any ethical concerns -- I looked it up. It's technically not cannibalism if the food source has died more than once, whatever its original species. Seriously. This was an issue in the Talmud. Major reanimation outbreak during the Roman siege of Jerusalem, especially when lots of people greeted family and friends with open arms thinking that it was the ressurection of the righteous. It all went back to Lazarus, the first known zombie in the historical eastern Mediterranian, but that's another story for another thread. And yeah, you hang the zombie upside down, ASAP after its post-post-mortem. Also remember that you really need to work with freshies. Stinkers have too much bacterial infection and potential toxins that can't be removed, just like a cow that's been left dead in the field for days. That, plus they're so stringy that even a few days in a crock-pot can't make those things really edible. They're worse than cat. So, back to butchering, behead it, drain it until there's no more fluid flow, open the abdominal cavity, remove internal organs, strip off major deposits of subcutaneous fat for later rendering into soap, fuel, and personal lubricant, then quarter the food either for cold-temperature hanging or immediate preparation. Some people like to thoroughly wash the quarters of meat to remove any residual body fluids. That said, you might not ever remove all body fluids, so handle with care until the 'meat' is fully cooked. Always use gloves, and a face mask and eye-covering is a good idea. Don't deal with raw 'meat' if you have any open wounds. Zombie Tasso and other dried jerky-type recipes to come! I've also got to call up my friends from North Carolina to get the full details on making a traditional slow-cooking zombie pit BBQ. Post reply Do you find this valuable?

Yeah, probably, but I'll be all over it like a Chilean futbol team stuck in the Andes. As for everyone else, read the above, "Don't worry, it's chinchilla" idea. Sure, I admit, it's a highly specialized profession, but protein sources would be a high demand trade good. Nobody would really investigate the source THAT thoroughly. And who would believe some stupid rumor that some guy is selling zombie meat. Post reply Do you find this valuable?
