As mentioned, two events run during Meat Week: Primal Cuts and Gram's Meat Cook. You can learn more about each of these events in the sections below.

Primal Cuts

In the Primal Cuts event, players must slaughter waves of creatures within a time limit to obtain Prime Meat. The event appears in three of the five regions of Appalachia every 15 minutes. Once enough meat has been gathered, it can be deposited in a cooking cauldron during the Grahm's Meat-Cook event for progress, legendary scrip, and rewards.

Grahm's Meat Cook

The Grahm's Meat Cook event in Fallout 76 takes place in the Forest south of Vault 76 and starts every hour. Players must perform tasks such as cleaning up leftovers, extinguishing brush fires, gathering feed, and providing musical entertainment to maintain the quality of the cookout.

The event's success is measured by a progress bar, and Grahm will reward participants with exclusive, barbecue-themed items depending on the outcome. The more successful the cookout, the higher the chances of receiving rare loot.
