Feast of the Blood Gods

A gift from the blood gods, a true feast for the true warriors, men and women who went even further beyond.
The food got itself a legendary status over the decades of the Servants of the blood gods religion. Some say only those blessed by the blood gods. themselves are able to make this masterpiece and only the true warriors are able to feast on it without harm.

For the worthy:

It has been discussed for generations who is considered worthy of the feast. Some claim singlehandedly killing 100 warriors during a raid as an appeasement to the blood gods is a worthy feat.
Others claim one must slay a powerful beast or even a myth such as a Tiglamoy. Or maybe simply be chosen by the blood gods
But more reasonable individuals claim any extraordinary feat is worthy enough, such as pushing a stuck boat off the shore when escaping from an enemy army.

Work of the masters:

A food such as Feast of the Blood Gods can't simply be made by anyone who knows how to coock. Once the opportunity arises, cooks from all over the island are called in to compete whoever can make the best dish that is selected by the local officials, most commonly by the grand voice
The best ones, usually 10-15 people, are selected and provided with the best meat, fish, fruit, vegetables, spices and other ingredients.
They have the whole day to make the greatest food possible, both in taste, looks and grandure.

The celebration:

About once or even a few times in a decade, enough people deem a warrior worthy enough to warrant the food to be served. A huge local celebration is held, where people share all sorts of food and drinks, but mostly celebrate the person who warrants such an occasion.
The celebration takes about an hour before the Feast of the Blood Gods is served to the warrior. All pray and watch as the meal is slowly consumed. However, such a dish is rarely small enough to be eaten by one person, and since noone else is worthy enough, the rest is offered to the blood gods on a Sacrifical altar.
