Using Lamball Mutton Well
Never eat it raw. One mutton restores 37 hunger by itself, but the same single piece becomes Lamball Kebab for 52 with no other ingredient, Herb Roasted Lamball for 94 plus 12 SAN once you add 2x Red Berries, or Grilled Lamball for 147 plus 18 SAN with 2x Lettuce. Lettuce is the only one of the three that needs a farm, and it nearly quadruples what each carcass is worth.
Because every dish consumes exactly 1 mutton, stock is the limiting factor and not the recipe — cook the Lettuce version whenever your plot is producing and fall back to Red Berries only when it is not. Feeding raw mutton into a feed box wastes over 100 hunger per piece compared with cooking it first.
Lamball hands over its mutton whether you knock it out or throw a sphere at it — a successful catch pays the same 1 meat as a kill, so there is no reason to slaughter one you could have added to the box first.
Alternatives and Upgrades
Jellroy Bell Flesh matches it exactly at 37 hunger restored — those two differ in what they resist and what they weigh, not in raw hunger restored, so picking between them is a swap rather than an upgrade. The next real step is Gloopie Tentacle at 40; below it is Chikipi Poultry at 36.
