In the recent update 0.16 of Escape from Tarkov, Salty Dog Beef Sausages have gained significance as part of the Christmas Dinner quest, requiring players to gather five of these elusive items. Given their rarity, fulfilling this quest may seem challenging, but with the right strategies, you can quickly acquire Salty Dog Sausages in the game.
How to Acquire Salty Dog Beef Sausages in Escape from Tarkov
Salty Dog Beef Sausages can occasionally spawn as consumable food items within ration loot. Unfortunately, this can lead to confusion, as certain locations predominantly yield canned goods, such as the Goshan grocery store in Interchange.
Fortunately, the introduction of the Christmas Dinner quest brings festive Christmas Trees to various maps in Escape from Tarkov. These trees not only drop valuable loot, including Bronze Lions and Cat Figurines, but they also offer quest essentials like Mayos, Whiskey, Vodka, Peas, and of course, Salty Dog Beef Sausages.
To maximize your chances of finding these sausages, visit each Christmas Tree location across the maps. Be vigilant as you examine the ground and the tops of the nearby gifts, where the sausages may appear. It’s also possible to spot them resting on ledges of miniature huts.
Rushing to these Christmas Tree locations is a profitable strategy, but it’s crucial to memorize their positions and ensure you spawn close by to outpace other players who are on the hunt for the same loot.
Additionally, consider checking out the grocery store shelves in the Streets of Tarkov for opportunities outside of the Christmas Tree loot spawn areas.
What Are Salty Dog Beef Sausages Used For in Escape from Tarkov?
In addition to replenishing energy levels, Salty Dog Beef Sausages play a role in several quests, including:
- 1 for the Delicious Sausage quest
- 5 for the Christmas Dinner quest
- 1 for the Provocation quest
Before using the sausages for quests like Delicious Sausage, prioritize completing the Christmas Dinner quest, especially since it may be a limited-time event in patch 0.16. The requirements for the Christmas Dinner quest are as follows:
- Submit 5 Salty Dog Beef Sausages
- Submit 5 Can of Green Peas
- Submit 5 Jar of DevilDog Mayo
- Submit 1 Bottle of Tarkovskaya Vodka
- Submit 1 Bottle of Dan Jackiel Whiskey
- Submit 3 Jar of Pickles
Given that these sausages are commonly found in Christmas Tree loot locations, it may require time and persistence to collect them all.
Beyond quest-related uses, Salty Dog Beef Sausages can be bartered with Jaeger for a Grizzly Kit, requiring only one sausage and one Army Cracker.
