WoW Cooking Guide

Levels 1-375

In this WoW Cooking guide I am going to go over levelin up to levels 375.

Alliance Cooking Guide (Level 1-375):

Apprentice - Levels 1-75

1. First you will need to learn the Cooking skill. You can train to be an apprentice by visiting one of the many trainers in either one of the towns or villages. You will need to pay 9 copper to train.

2. Now to level up quickly to level 40, make Spiced Bread. Spiced Bread will cost you 30 copper for every 5 pieces of bread.

3. Once you hit level 40 it's time to move to some new recipes. At level 40 cook Roasted Board Meat with Chunk of Boar Meat from Boars found in Elwynn Forest and Dun Morogh, Charred Wolf Meat with Stringy Wolf Meat found on Wolves in Elwynn Forest and Dun Morogh, or Roasted Moongraze Tenderloin found on Azuremyst Isle. These are all good options in order to level up. Continue to make either one of these recipes until you hit level 50. Atleast 10 pieces of meat will need to be made in order to reach level 50.

-Since your skill points will decrease as you gain more experience, when you reach level 10 you should learn how to cook Spiced Wolf Meat. If you happen to be low on meat you can replace the meats with Spiced Bread instead. Making Beer Boasted Board Ribs can be used as an alternative as well. You will be able to make that once you get the quest reward in Dun Morough. It can also be purchased in the Pig and Whistle Tavern in Stormwind's old town from Kendor Kabonka

4. At skill level 50 you will be able to turn Clam Meat and Refreshing Spring Water to Boiled Clams. And you will be able to turn Coyote Meat into Coyote Steak. Cooking both of these will allow you to level up to level 100. 

Journeyman - Levels 75-125

5. When you reach level 75 make sure that you find a trainer to train to be Journeyman. This will cost you 5 silver to train. 

6. Find Kendor Kabonka in Old Town in the Pig and Whistle Tavern. Kendor sells 10 to 12 recipes that level up to 130. Some of the recipes are quest rewards from other zones. Make sure to get the Redridge Goulash recipe and the Murloc Fin Soup recipe.

7. Next, go to Westfall and level up to 90 by making Goretusk Liver Pie.

8. To reach level 125 while you're still in Westfall, harvest some Clam Meat from the Shore Crawlers and cook them using the Clam Chowder recipe. You can get this recipe from Kriggon Talsone at the WestFall Light House. 

9. Next visit your cooking trainer to attain Expert Cooking for 95 Silver.

Expert - Levels 125 - 200

10. Head back to the Wetlands and grind Murlocs, Crocolisks, and Raptors. You will want to cook Crocolisk Gumbo,  Goblin Deviled Clams, Curiously Tasty Omelet, and Murloc Fin Soup. Cooking these will allow you to progress to level 190.

11. Once you reach level 190, go to Desolace and locate Vendor-Tron 1000 and Super-Seller 680. These two vendors will only spawn once an hour for 10 minutes and in two different places. They only show up at a caravan that moves through Desolace so you will need to locate them at their respective locations.

Vendor-Tron 1000 has about 5 recipes that you can get and Super-Seller 680 has only one recipe that will be close to your skill level and then 3 others that are for level 275. Get these recipes.

12. Go to Tanaris and grind the wolves and hyaenas. This will give you Red Wolf Meat and skorpids that can be used for Mystery Meat. Use both of these to level up to level 200 by cooking Hot Wolf Ribs and Carrion Surprise.

13. Once you've reached level 200 visit your trainer to earn the Artisan cooking level. You will need to pay 2 gold and 25 silver. 

Master - Levels 200 - 375

14. Next you will want to head over to Felwood at the Talonbranch Glade. Once here find Malygen behind the house. Purchase the three recipes he's selling.

15. Now you're going to want to stay in Felwood. Look around the area for bears. Grind the bears and use them for Bear Flank. Cook these to make Charred Bear Kabobs or Juicy Bear Burger. Bear Flank can also be found on the bears in Feralas near Twin Colossals. Doing this will get you to level 275.

16. Now you will want to get the Desert Recipe quests by going to Cenarion Hold in Silithus and speaking with Calandrath. The third quest will give you the Recipe, Smoked Desert Dumplings. Now you'll want to grind the strikers and Dredge Crushers. This should give you Sandworm Meat. You will need 10 more of these than is required by the quest and Sooting Spices to get to level 300.

17. Next head to Outland and learn the Ravager Dog recipe. You can learn this from Sid Limbardi who's at Honor Hold. Now farm 25 Ravager Flesh from Ravagers South West on the path to Terrokar. You can find the ravegers by going to the Expedition Armory and going West. In order to proceed you'll need to be atleast level 325.

18. Now you're going to want to fly to Telaar in Nagrand. Once there buy the Talbuk Steak and Roasted Clefthoof recipe from Uriku. If you go North East from Ring of Trials south to Kil'sorrow Fortress, you will be able to get all of the Clefthoof Meat and Talbuk Venison that you are going to need. Make sure to farm both of these until you have a total of 25-30 pieces. To continue you'll need to be at 350.

19. Now you will want to fly to Ruuan Weald in Blade's Edge Mountains. Once there purchase the Mok'Nathal Shortribs and the Crunchy Serpent recipe. You'll get these from Xerintha Ravenoak. Now you will want to fly to the crossroads above Death's Door in the South East part of Blade's Edge Mountains. Once you get there farm about 15 to 20 Raptor Ribs and Serpent Flesh. Once you do this you will be able to train Grand Master Level. Head over to Northrend to complete this.

Now in order to cut through figuring all of this out by following this guide, or trying to figure it out on your own, I would highly recommend the Ultimate WoW guide. That guide will specificy for you the exact path that your specific character should take for the fastest and most efficient leveling method than this guide could possibly give you. You'll be shown in game where to go and what to do. This isn't a guide that you have to read but is completely in game so it's pretty friggen cool. Whether you are Horde or Alliance the Ultimate WoW guide will have you covered.
