Cooking Help?

Hello all, I have been to these forums many times in retail WOW, but only a couple of times for my 2 Classic characters, and I am having difficulty finding any ingredients to level cooking for my Undead Warrior in Tirisfal Glades
I can get Stringy Wolf Meat galore, but it seems that past a certain point there is no mobs that drop any useful ingredients to cook where I am trying to level.
For instance, there is no way for me to get Clam Meat where I am, Coyote Meat is Alliance only it seems, Crawler Meat would require me to be in Kalimdor to farm, same with Small Eggs.
Is there anything I can farm in Forsaken areas to cook??
Oh yes, and Thanks in advance!!

Bat wings carried me quite a ways, but you might need to wait until you move to Silverpine to level up more. Or learn how to fish.

WoWHead’s guide is pretty helpful.

Fishing is definitely the way to go. Pick up the recipes for Brilliant Small fish, Longjaw Mud Snapper, and Bristle Whisker Catfish. By the time you get the catfish to green or grey you should be in a contested zone with greater diversity of food. Brightwater Lake in Tirisfal and Lordamere Lake in Silverpine should do the trick. After cooking 175 the turtles in eastern Hillsbrad provide turtle meat for the bisque.

And if you don’t want to farm turtles, you can fish from 0-300. After you get to 175, fish on the auction house is dirt cheap. Raw Redgill will take you from 225-300 and because people get so much of it farming nightfin, you’ll find it on the AH for 1 copper over vendor.

As other’s are saying: Fishing

Also, of you’re posting on the actually character. You reaaaally want Fishing. As a person with a Warrior alt, I eat a lot. Like…20 stacks of chicken a lot. …it’s quite expensive. :X

There is a vendor recipe in Silverpine for Bear Meat, so you can do that too. It’s mostly just Wolf Meat and Bat Wings (from the vendor in Brill) till about 75 skill, maybe higher, and then the Bear Meat if you don’t use fishing. Once you get up to Hillsbrad and the lower 20’s there are a couple of other recipes there too.

When you hit Silverpine, you can get clams from the murlocs, and you can get a recipe to cook bear meat at Sepulchur.

Fishing is insane for cooking. I’ve leveled both to 300 3x since release. You basically max your fishing out and cook alongside it. Unsure why blizzard made cooking and proffesions so silly to level in cooking atleast its easy

Fish. It’ll literally give you everything to cook. All other recipes are a waste.

Fisherman sells cooking recipes for fish too. There is a great guide of raising both at the same time.

Honestly if you catch and cook fish, you’ll max cooking by lvl 35.

Sadly useless skills at 60 since Boone cares for anything other than squid.

Murlocs on the coast ha e meats.

You can just do the easy mode fishing cooking. But it’s not as enjoyable and just another boring fast way to have nothing fun left to do.

I think I should get some sleep,I was going to suggest an Instant Pot.
