Chapter 1694: This Roast Meat Smells Great

“System, the freaking information that you provided has deliberately misled me.” Mag couldn’t help complaining inwardly when he heard Eddie’s words.

This black goat was indeed not from the Blue Grassland, but the snow mountain beyond the grassland. If they hadn’t met this group of herders, they would never have found one black goat even if they turned the Blue Grassland over.

“This system giving the information about the Blue Grassland to the Host is already considered disclosure of information in violation of regulations. How dare the Host bite the hand that feeds him and malign me? This hurts this system’s feelings,” said the system severely.

“Cut it out, will you?” Mag rolled his eyes. He didn’t believe the system’s lies. However, since he had already ascertained the polar black goat’s position, this mission was already half-finished.

“This goat is so precious, how could we eat it?” Mag said to Eddie with embarrassment. The herders were indeed very hospitable, and this made him rather embarrassed.

“It’s our tribe’s honor to prepare food for our esteemed guests,” Eddie smilingly replied. It had been years since so many guests had come to the grassland, and the Buck Tribe was indeed a generous tribe to their guests. They would always serve their guests their best food.

Mag smiled. “Then, please continue. I am rather interested in roast mutton. May I watch you during the roasting process?”

Eddie was surprised that Mag was actually interested in roasting mutton, which was such a lowly affair, given his identity and status. However, big shots usually had some weird hobbies, so Eddie didn’t pursue it, and simply nodded. “Of course, please make yourself comfortable.”

As the chief of the Buck Tribe, Eddie was also the best roasting master in the tribe. A sheep or goat, no matter how thin or fat, would always be perfectly roasted in Eddie’s hands. Only the previous chief could match his skills.

The goat, which had three of its legs tied together, soon stopped struggling. All its blood was let out. Eddie crouched down and sliced open a cut on the goat’s leg before puffing up his cheeks and blowing hard.

The goat skin puffed up, and Eddie raised his knife. He cut out a complete piece of goat’s skin perfectly.

Mag watched him do that with admiration. The herders’ wisdom was indeed admirable.

Of course, this wasn’t how Mag skinned the goat. He would hold up a corner of the skin, and use his Fat Head Fish to slice along the skin slowly. He could also cut up a complete piece of goat’s skin at an even faster speed.

The crux was that he didn’t have to use his mouth.

The black goat lost his skin, and revealed the flesh within. The flesh was lean and fit, and almost no fat could be seen. Reared goats couldn’t compare to it.

After using the ice water from the river to clean the flesh, and rubbing a handful of coarse salt and a spice that Mag had never seen before over it, Eddie used three pieces of wood to prop the goat up and place it over the preprepared grilling rack.

“Watch it closely. If anything happens to it, you can forget about dinner tonight.” Eddie told a young man to watch over the roast goat.

“Alright, it won’t go wrong,” Alfonso acknowledged with a silly smile. He was taking sneak peaks at Mag enviously while he was turning the grill.

“He’s my grandson, Alfonso. He’s still young, but he grew up next to the grilling rack, and his barbecue skills are far better than those of most of the men in the tribe.” Eddie introduced Alfonso to Mag with pride.

“He’s a promising young man.” Mag smilingly nodded, and took a double look at Alfonso too. This young man did indeed resemble Eddie. His black wavy hair was let loose around his shoulders, and compared to other herders his age, there seemed to be a gleam sparkling in his brown eyes. That made him look a little different.

“It will take some time to roast the entire goat, so let me roast some mutton for my esteemed guests first.” Eddie went to a row of arbuscles at the edge of the clearing with a dagger. Those arbuscles weren’t tall, but they had a lot of branches that tangled together. They had a kind of red leaves that resembled maple leaves.

Mag remembered it. The sap that Eddie used to rub all over the goat seemed to be mashed up from their leaves, while the three pieces of wood that were used as the grilling rack also seemed to be made from this arbuscle’s trunk.

Eddie used the dagger to chop off a big bunch of branches. He used the dagger to shave the surface of branches clean, and Mag could already smell a faint fragrance.

“What’s that?” Mag curiously asked. He was reminded of the rose willow branch immediately.

The authentic roasted mutton cubes on rose willow branch was the pinnacle of barbecue meats. The rose willow branch that skewered the meat was a natural spice, and the meat tasted completely different to the chowhounds from the meats that were barbecued with normal bamboo skewers.

“This is the branch of the baka tree. We, the Buck Tribe, always use it to roast meat. The roast mutton tastes even better with it.” Eddie washed the sticks that he had cut out in a wooden basin and chuckled. “We won’t get this taste anywhere else after we leave the grassland.”

“That is indeed a good thing.” Mag nodded. Its effect was almost similar to the rose willow branch’s. Furthermore, smelling the fragrance that was emitted by this branch, he could tell it was indeed a natural spice.

The black goat was already placed on the grilling rack completely, so Eddie caught another healthy blue sheep and slaughtered it. After getting the meat from the sheep’s thighs and forehead, he chopped it into cubes before skewering it with the baka tree sticks. There were five to six cubes on each stick, and the cubes were three centimeters wide on each side.

The burning charcoal was set up in a row in the mud pit. Stones were laid, and the mutton kebabs were laid out one by one.

Barbecue in the grassland wasn’t very particular. It looked very basic, but the whole process made people feel as wholesome as those meat kebabs.

The branches were freshly cut, and were soaked in the water before, so they didn’t have to worry that the wood would burn before the mutton kebabs were cooked.

The red charcoal gave out quite a good temperature. The marbled mutton sizzled shortly, and gave out a roasted meat aroma.

The sheep in the Blue Grassland didn’t have any rank odor. Mag knew that after he drank the sheep’s milk.

However, placing this mutton, which was almost unprocessed, straight into the fire was indeed a very unsophisticated way of grilling.

He didn’t dare to be so casual when he roasted the beef kebabs, because one had to be very careful with the control of heat and turning of the mutton kebabs. The chunky mutton would either be uncooked inside or charred outside.

Miya and the rest all came forward too. If Mag was watching the grilling with such focus, then it had to be exceptional.

Moreover, the aroma of this roast mutton was getting richer and richer. It finally made all of them who had been flying for hours felt hungry finally.

It would be best if they could have a few mutton kebabs to suppress their hunger before eating the roasted whole goat.

“Wow, this roast meat smells great. It must be delicious when it’s done.” Amy licked her lips as she crouched next to the fire expectantly.

“Meow~” Ugly Duckling was already reaching out its paws with anticipation.
