Now that the fifth season of Game of Thrones is in full swing, it’s time for a couple of giveaways! This week, I’m giving away TWO of the Funko POP! Drogon Figures. And following in the spirit of HBO’s #CatchDrogon movement, all you have to do is comment below, and say what recipe you would use to lure the little (alright, not so little anymore…) dragon in to land. The drawing will be random, so it can be any food, not just a Westerosi dish -playing to the judge won’t help! ;)
The names will be chosen on the morning of Saturday, May 2nd, at 10am EST. Good luck!
Pomegranate syrup. For the color and the fact that they most likely have seen daenerys drinking it on occasion.
honeyed Dornish CHILDREN
Roast whole kid (as in goat! :-p ) over a spit outside. He does like his meat nice and charred. :-)
I’d use lamb with honey and fiery peppers as bait. We know he loves lamb!
Crispy lamb with BBQ sauce :P
Beef and bacon pie. I’d go for it so why not him?
Two large oxen with skin un-buchered rosted over a slow fire till skin spitls open. Then laided aponde a bed of large leavs up high near a body of water.
Honeyed lamb…they all love lamb and perhaps the sweet honey will entice him :)
A live lamb. No fun if it’s already cooked!
This is hard, because my two go-to meat dishes are yours and that felt like sucking up! (Honey chicken and the Dothraki goat with firepods and honey).
So barring those as options and knowing it had to be a mutton dish for him, I’ll put forward a recipe I’ve been wanting to try from Spoon Fork Bacon, Coconut Marinated Lamb Kebabs, left to the rare and bloody side so he can do his own charring: http://www.spoonforkbacon.com/2014/06/coconut-milk-marinated-lamb-kabobs/
Thanks for all you do!
Of course a whole herd of roasted cows with white wine and rosemary
Meerenese Lamb!
Unicorn meat with mandrake sauce :)
Medley of roasted meats on the spit. Preferably rosemary lamb, beacon pork and juicy butter and mustard beef. Might attract more then hungry dragons. :)
Beef and bacon pies! Tried this recipe last night and it was so delicious that even Drogon would surely stop for a bite!
BBQ Lamb and goat
His own flock of freshly sheared sheep. On the table would be my families favorite of honey glazed chicken with a nice kick of curry and cayenne.
I would make Goat Stew for all my family and friends and leave the leftovers for Drogon.
I’d make him a tofu sheep, deep fried so crispy on the outside, buttery soft on the inside. I bet he’d like to have something different for once!
Well done steak!
A damsel in distress. Dragons love damsels in distress, right?
Lemon cakes with the pomegranate syrup!!
Boneless leg o lamb, marinated in wine and garlic and then grilled london broil style
Deviled eggs, as an appetizer. Lamb for the main course, and a flambee dessert for Drogon of course!
Cubcakes :-)
Hot and spicey goat meatballs in red pomegranate sauce!
Honey’d Chicken and lots of em
I’d probably use Lord Manderly’s Pie recipe to catch a Drogon, then some lemon cakes for dessert. Although then I’d catch a Sansa.
I would go for honey’d duck with some lemon cakes for his sweet tooth :D
Without a doubt, it has been the venison stew. I have made it twice and I love it.. so surely a dragon would!
I think I’d have to go with a leg of lamb…
Buffalo Wings!
Cumin, coriander and pepper dry rubbed pork ribs with a rose vinegar dipping sauce. (it’s the last big meat dish I made, and everyone liked it.
Honeyed Chicken (yum)
I’d go with something that looks like he could snatch it easily, but it fact would be difficult to carry away. Gotta have more time to catch him. So:
A pigeon stuffed into a chicken stuffed into a duck stuffed into a goat stuffed into a sheep stuffed into a pig stuffed into an ox. Perhaps a side of Stormcrow captain guanciale or Ramsey’s sausages.
Whoever sits the Iron Throne, so currently, King Tommen with a nice side dish of Queen Maergery. :)
Many many roasted lambs and kids filled and laced with wild thyme and rosemary. The roasting meat should be based in their own juices. Drogon has a penchant for shepherds’ livestock. He probably likes the greasy goodness of lamb and goats and the fragrant earthy undertones of the herbs they graze upon. I’ll make him stay with a desert of Dothraki horse steak.
I’d definitely be serving him a bleu steak. Just barely charred/seared but still nice and bloody on the inside.
This is tough since I don’t eat much meat and I doubt dragons would be tempted by a vegetarian offering… But I will say that if you offer me Eggs Benedict I’ll do just about anything, so I’d make him a huge platter of that! With extra sauce.
Given his size I would try a whole lamb roasted on a spit over a fire or braai seasoned with herbs and basted with honey wine. I have lizards at home that love lamb (especially a skink that begs me for lumps of shepherd’s pie) so I imagine the big fella would love this.
Fishes! Lots of fishes!
Dothraki Blood Pie, of course! With goat, since we know he has a taste for it. Hopefully it takes him back to his younger days, riding the Great Grass Sea with the Dany.
Honey-Spiced Locusts along with Iced Milk & Honey should do the trick!
A great white lion… alive
I I would make the Aurochs with leeks, the medieval sauce and baked apples. I have a picky daughter and she even loved the dish.
A whole goat roasted on a spit over a huge fire. With a side of the rest of the herd of goats. If he eats it all he will be too full to fly away. :)
I’d take a proportionate slice of pork pie, beef and bacon pie, and pigeon pie and put them all together to form one colassal meat filled pie.
Every chicken in the room!
Roasted leg of lamb (rare, of course) with garlic and rosemary
Ramsey Snow, but he must hunt him first.
Drogon has been out and about on his own for awhile and has likely found The Hound and put him out of his misery. So after eating such a rancid human, I would lure him with an assortment of fresh, raw organic meats already deboned and ready for Drogon’s personal hibachi grill. Meeranese Lamb, Wild Boar from Westeros and Whole Goat. I’m sure Drogon wouldn’t mind a side of Flayed Men from Winterfell but I’m not about to ask Ramsey Bolton for a special order.
Mac & Cheese! Have not met a person that didn’t love it!
Steak tartar or carpaccio, red and raw but oh so tasty!
He can get lamb anytime he wants, how about a Stag? A nice juicy Stag with a little Cersei sauce on the side? Yummy!
Roasted whole auroch on a pile of whole goats cooked in the style of sweetgrass honey and firepods which are stuffed with honeyed locusts, and a trough of firebrandy to wash it down!
Grilled steak and lamb!! With some veggies for the humans.
I would use the Crown Roast Recipe, because “It’s a crown. Made of meat. Wrapped in bacon.” … What more do you need? If Drogon doesn’t show before I eat it all, his loss!
A huge crock pot full of meat chili! The best is of course made with smoked tri-tip and plenty of garlic. And if garlicky bite and smoky goodness don’t lure him in, at least those of us waiting will have an awesome dinner.
Koi soi. Spicy raw meat. Of course they would love it.
To get him to land it would have to smell good, so lots of roasting pigs and lambs. Maybe surrounded with balloons so he would think it was a party and not a trap.
Roasted Lamb and a little Apple Cabbage stew. Only dragons and men eat their meat cooked. Maybe have some treasure, dragons have always liked hoarding treasure.
I’d start with something shiny to attract his attention like a huge pile of chocolate gold foil coins. Like Amalexia said, Dragons like treasure! Then I’d entice him with something smokey like a well done roasted boar.
wild boar roasting on a spit
Pan seared phoenix, done rare.
Slowly roasted suckling pig. Juicy and crunchy!
Chocolate Cake!! What dragon doesn’t love chocolate? ;)
Treasure. It’s a common misconception that dragons eat peasants.
Fiery stuffed peppers!
Being that dragon’s are obligate carnivore’s, I would have to go with a large fat sheep. Serve it up alive, just like Nettle did in order to tame and ride Sheepstealer in, The Princess and The Queen, or, The Blacks and The Greens. :) With a side of suckling pig with garlic, for the dragon tamer.
Roast pig, Hawaiian style. Yummmm
Joffrey’s corpse \m/
If I were Daenerys? My enemies…. in a a shallot, redwine, and tear reduction sauce.
My spicy Adobo chicken. Lovingly nursed (braised really) for at least 8 hours in darkest soy, bitterest vinegar, sugars of slain slavers, with tonnes of fiery garlic, onions (Davos!), spiciest spices from Qarth… ahh, meat literally sloughs off the bone as if with the help of Valerian steel.
Haunch of arouchs, pit roasted rare. The smell of roast meat would bring him in. No need for fancies.
Maybe a little horseradish, and some pomegranate juice for show.
Grilled Prince.
A very large (think whole cow) Beef Tartare.
I’ve got a yard full of goats so I suspect he’d be coming to visit me! :-)
Spiced lamb with an exotic fruit wine to wash it down :)
Brazilian BBQ lamb with chimichurri
Roast beast, of course!
A big chunk of meat, any kind would probably work, roasting over a fire.
Beef roast. A big one (whole cow?). Seasoned with garlic and onions. Very fragrant and very nommy.
Naughty child with a side of lamb.
Nuvole di drago
I would have make Dragon Eggs from the Wild Thaiger Restaurant, Phoenix, Arizona. I know, it’s not the traditional like mutton but they are so good.

Well of course I would have to have some grilled chicken! Cause who can resist grilled chicken?
I just throw it a horse completely covered in ranch, because who doesn’t love ranch?!?! Thanks for the chance!
Targaryen pretender.
I’m going to go with charred lamb with lots of mediterranean spices. :)
Stallion heart blood pudding. Should taste nice and bloody for him!
I would do a pigon in a turkey in a pig in a bull, each layer wrapped in bacon and roasted whole over a huge firepit.
Bacon wrapped ….anything.
Flash-fried stag. And wolf. And lion…
I’d lure Drogon in with some delicious tethered goat, a la Jurassic Park, but sauced with the blood of my enemies because Targaryen.
I’d try with a huge wild boar chained up for him to roast and a herd of sheep nearby to hunt and play some ;)
Roasted boar to lure him in by smell, and a side of rebellious slave master for fresh cooking. Oh, and some black pudding to round the whole meal out.
Claimants to the Iron Throne! ;-) Viserion and Rhaegal seem content with mutton, but Drogon has a more refined palate.
