Brahmin steak and its raw form are consumable items in Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas, Fallout 4, Fallout 76 and Fallout: The Board Game.
Background[]
Brahmin have been domesticated in the wasteland for many purposes; labor, as beasts of burden, hair, milk and of course, their meat. Although irradiated, brahmin meat has become a staple protein source in the post-apocalyptic diet for many denizens of the wastes. Brahmin herding makes up the backbone of the New California Republic economy and in turn, created the New Reno NCR brahmin rustling economy.
