No No No... you're going about it all wrong. Adepts are just fine with a
crust of garlic breading that's been quick seared to hold in the fleshy
taste. Sams on the hand have recently made a culinary breakthrough. Those
that have bone lacing are especially helpful in this regard.

Sammie-Ka-Bobs.

One street Samurai (the lower the essence, the less the cooking time)
One masonry grill, preferably outdoors
50 pounds of butter (gotta give it *SOME* taste)
Preferred Seasoning (blood wine and fresh pepper are always good for this)

Take the SKB and put him on the spit of choice, making sure to bind the legs
and arms with excess wiring from the reflex augmentations (nothing goes to
waste in our kitchen). If you connect a datalink to their cybereyes
thermographic vision, you can even test the cooking temperature from
internal variation and control. Ensure "red", but don't go for
"white"
(that burns things too quickly). Rotate slowly (I know, the impatience of
waiting for any good, home-cooked, meal is so difficult a period but so
worth the wait) for 7 hours, with every point of essence lossed due to
implantware reducing the time by one hour (we *are* talking Shadowrun here).
Remember, as with all things, a minimum of one hour is required to ensure
thorough basting for all tastes but the most virally challenged of
individuals.

For those wishing a variety of foods and a balanced meal, toss in your
choice of side-garnishment. Be careful, the prices for real veggies and
fruits depends entirely upon your source (some people find grocery stores
useful, but we prefer insane asylums and nuthouses for ours).

Christopher Ghoulseternal of Discovery Trideo has a variety of ideas on how
to ensure a proper dining environment complete with personalized setting.
He indicates making certain that the cyberspurs from the SKB are used to
serve as fondue sticks when and where-ever possible.

Can't I just manabolt or flamethrower and serve as is? :)

Well according to the Universal Cooking Journal (online through the
shadownets I'm sure), you can go for that option but you really have to be
wary of the results. Slinging Flamethrowers especially can be very bad as
you can tend to get a chordite smell charred into the flesh which can really
dampen anyone's fickle pallet. One spell slinger I know has also made
remarks that because of the various results from random astral elements and
background count fluctuations, the results and even thoroughness of the
cooking (flaming?) can just be downright frustrating.
