Where to Find Broncherry Meat
2 Pals drop Broncherry Meat when defeated or captured, which is usually the faster route if you are already out hunting — the drop list below is sorted by how reliably each one gives it up.
If you would rather just buy it, the seller is Caravan Shop at 500 Gold.
Sending a team on the Celestial Sakura Cavern, Dark Cave of Feybreak and Sunreach Isle expeditions brings some back without you leaving base, and 1 more expeditions can return it too.
For volume, hunt the plain Broncherry rather than the Aqua variant. Broncherry is one of the most widely distributed field Pals on the map and spawns day or night; Broncherry Aqua is pinned to a single coastal pocket with only a handful of spawn points, so it is a Paldex stop rather than a meat farm.

Using Broncherry Meat Well
Never eat these cuts raw if you have a fire lit. One cut on its own becomes a Broncherry Rib Roast for 252 hunger instead of 180 — a 40% gain for 3,200 work and nothing else in the pot. Adding flour, an onion and a carrot turns the same cut into Broncherry Fried Noodles at 321 hunger plus 40 sanity, which is the best return any single Broncherry cut can produce.
The cooked forms are also a carry-weight trick. A raw cut weighs 5.0, and so does the rib roast, but Broncherry Fried Noodles weigh 0.5 — ten dishes for the encumbrance of one raw cut. If you are hauling food for a long expedition or a tower run, cook the noodles at base and leave the raw meat in the chest.
Broncherry Fried Noodles carry a timed +20% Ranged Attack buff on top of the food they restore, so a stack of them doubles as pre-fight prep for anyone shooting rather than swinging. Cook a batch before an alpha or a tower boss instead of chewing raw meat mid-fight.
Capturing pays exactly what killing does here — both Broncherry and Broncherry Aqua hand over 2 cuts at a flat 100%, with no rate roll either way. Throw the sphere: you bank the Paldex entry, the capture bonus and the same meat.
Alternatives and Upgrades
Nothing in the food class beats it on hunger restored. The next one down is Mammorest Meat at 180, so if you are still using that, this is the upgrade worth the materials.
