BotW A Rare Find: Raw Gourmet Meat for Trott
Finish A Rare Find in Breath of the Wild by bringing Trott Raw Gourmet Meat at Outskirt Stable. Learn which meat counts and how to keep it from freezing.
What completes A Rare Find?
Give Trott one Raw Gourmet Meat at Outskirt Stable to receive 100 rupees. The item must still be raw when you hand it over. This short side quest in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is easiest to finish when you keep a piece from an ordinary hunting trip.
Find Trott at Outskirt Stable on the map, southwest of Central Hyrule. Talk to him about meat, then select the option to give him the requested ingredient. If you already have it, there is no need to hunt a new animal after accepting the quest.
Which meat counts?
| Item in your materials | Does it work? |
|---|---|
| Raw Gourmet Meat | Yes; keep one for Trott |
| Raw Prime Meat or Raw Meat | No; these are lower grades |
| Raw Whole Bird or other poultry | No; bird meat is a different ingredient |
| Seared Gourmet Steak | No; cooking has changed the item |
| Icy Gourmet Meat | No; freezing has changed the item |
Check the full name in the inventory instead of judging only by the size of the meat icon. A piece that has already been cooked or frozen cannot be turned back into the raw quest ingredient.
Where can you hunt for Raw Gourmet Meat?
Large animals in the Hebra and Tabantha snowfields are useful targets, including moose and rhinoceroses. Drops can vary, so do not assume that every animal will provide the top grade. The ingredient farming guide has more ways to collect food while traveling.
Prepare cold resistance before hunting. Approach with a bow, use an ordinary arrow and move to the animal’s dropped materials immediately. Fire can cook the meat, while leaving it on snowy ground can freeze it; either change makes it unsuitable for this delivery.
A horse can help you close the distance after a shot. Keep the pickup route short and collect the meat before stopping to sort equipment or look for the next animal. Once Raw Gourmet Meat is in your inventory, the outside temperature will no longer freeze it there.
What happens after the first delivery?
Trott pays 100 rupees and the Adventure Log marks A Rare Find complete. He also accepts further Raw Gourmet Meat at the same price, up to his daily limit. If his dialogue says he has had enough, that is a limit on additional purchases, not an unfinished quest.
Keep your other meat for cooking, or compare this sale with the alternatives in the rupee farming guide. You do not need to sell an entire hunting haul to finish the quest.
