Note: You will need to complete the Goal: How the West was one(prize Cowboy Campfire) , before you can do Culinary Cowboy!

You cook this on the commercial range.

[ToshiNoMiya]

You have to collect the beans from the sheriff first...

[Aerial123456]

How often do the sheriff and outlaw visit?

[ghjvcucjb]

Under culinary cowboy goal it states to have a cowboy campfire but I can't find this in the market. Is it different or the same from the grill we already have and if different, how do we get it? Thanks

ETA, never mind, found Kooky's post above regarding this

[privet111]

Restart your game, it helped me.

Thanks , now it's working

[privet111]

What are those hats for ?

[gracelinda]

I'm guessing the hats are to accumulate for prizes. We've had a quest similar in the past. Does anyone know how often the sherif and bandit arrive? Very frustrating already waiting for them to get the needed ingredients.

[phatzs]

I think every 2 hrs. I honestly wasn't watching the clock the first time I tapped on them. Going off previous quests, it's usually in the 2hr range. Could be more, could be less.

Half this game is frustration, I think this will be one of "those" quests :(

[anicak84]

I think every 2 hrs.

I think it's 1 and 1/2 hours but not sure

[phatzs]

I think it's 1 and 1/2 hours but not sure

U could be right. I wasn't really paying attention the first time I clicked them. I do know it's definitely not past 2 hrs

Not sure but I think they come at different times. Just opened my game and collected from the cowgirl for the second time today and waited about 10 minutes, no show on the cowboy.

[ghjvcucjb]

What are those hats for ?

I got hats from my Irish tea! Are we getting hats from all the recipes? If so then it's going to take some planning to avoid full counters


ETA hats from commercial ovens and jubilee but none from snowy oven.

I got a couple hats from the salad bar and deli counter

[kennyoz]

No this goal is like the Mother's Day goal where you have to collect a certain amount of hats to unlock recipes like Bakery story 2

[littledarc3]

We have 2 weeks to do this quest. I wouldn't worry about not getting beans every 10 minutes. I do like the items with water drops, but I find those to be much harder than a person who comes every 2 hours. They ask less of you this way versus with water. Remember the soy sauce debacle? I prefer this myself.

[ghjvcucjb]

Ok, time to get serious. We need to figure out 1. which stoves gives hats. 2 how many hats per recipes or is it random each time. Otherwise there's a high probability of running out of counter space

I prefer this myself.

My concern is one of the goals wants us to make the chili 12 times in 2 days at 4 beans per cooking. If we can only collect every 2 hours plus sleeping and normal life that's calling it close for those who are super dedicated and impossible for those who still consider this just a game and not a career. Forget it if the character doesn't drop off the 4 each time. That also stops us from doing the other recipe goal that requires the same type of beans for the two days. And we're only on day 1

ETA yep, just what I feared. Character only dropped off 3 beans when the recipe needs 4, which means I have to wait another cycle to get enough to make the chili once. That's going to make 12 times in 48 hours a pretty tough run

[littledarc3]

Why are you trying to make 12 in 24 hours? We have 2 weeks. I think I'm confused. Which goal is this?

[lnztrekfan]

My characters were about 1 hour and a half and both were there at the same time. Received 3 beans a piece both times they dropped. As for the hats, if this is like the Mothers Day event you can check back on that post for how many each recipe drops. Last time I made a ton of these and so far they are the same. Pizza Bread at 6 minutes and 2 hats. Margarita Pizza takes 10 minutes and 4 hats. Cobb salads take ten minutes and gives 5 hats. OJ takes 10 minutes and gives 4 hats. The diner stove I don't believe awards anything. The Sheriff Chili and Bandit's Chili each take 3 of their respective beans and 3 steals and 3 tomatoes. The recipe Stewed Beans on the cowboy stove takes 4 Black Beans (bandit girl drops these) and 3 carrots.

[littledarc3]

Ok, time to get serious. We need to figure out 1. which stoves gives hats. 2 how many hats per recipes or is it random each time. Otherwise there's a high probability of running out of counter space

OJ 4 hats
Bruschetta 4 hats
Ginger snaps 4 hats
Clams casino 2 hats
Bunny cupcakes 2 hats
Sheriff chili 2 hats
Lobster divalo 2 hats

Goal: Giddy Up, Grub Stewed Beans!

Cook: stewed beans 12 times in 2 days "pick up the pace chef" Skip 100 gems

Reward: 1000 hats

Oooh! When did you get this one unlocked?! Or are you a high level? Also I'm sure you know this but.. 2 days is 48 hrs so you have more time to collect. I think you need a total of 48 beans. If you get 3 beans a drop that's 16 drops in 48 hrs. If it's every 1 and a half hours you would need to collect at least 8x a day. I think this is right but you may want to double check my math! Good Luck!! :)

Yah, that was a typo I corrected. The rest of my post was correct. It's going to be a tough one. I wonder if master spice will work? I'll let everyone know when I finally collect enough beans. I'm level 57

ETA.. 8 x a day?! When do we sleep, eat, make sure the kids don't burn down the house?

[littledarc3]

Goal: Giddy Up, Grub Stewed Beans!

Wow. That's ridiculous. Maybe saving up and then doing that one? I dunno. Seems weird.

[littledarc3]

I think it's 1 and 1/2 hours but not sure

I had one come and one not come. Restarted my game and still nothing. The previous time they both came together so I'm confused.

[lnztrekfan]

Sleep?! What's that? I know right! Lol! Although I think it's technically possible to collect 16 times a day! (24/1.5) I used up all of my mastery spices for the event before the cruise, but I don't think it would work cause then it might be too easy! ;) I'm level 53. Have you already Learned stewed beans? Maybe I have to do that before this goal pops up. Though I may have already set myself behind because I used my first set of beans for the bandit chili! I don't know which to do first. I do love all this new decor! It's super cute! :) Good Luck!

[lnztrekfan]

I had one come and one not come. Restarted my game and still nothing. The previous time they both came together so I'm confused.

Ummm... Well he is the Sheriff and she's the Bandit. So... Maybe she's on the lamb! ;) Sorry just couldn't resist!

For real though maybe try again in a couple minutes.

[littledarc3]

Still nothing. Maybe they will show up together when they are due again.

[tuffyjkitten]

I had the 2 day mini challenge pop up right after I collected the stewed beans after learning it. We need 5000 cowboy hats to earn the cornbread recipe so the 1000 from this 2 day mini challenge will help. I used a mastery spice on my first one, will see if it has any effect or not.

[ghjvcucjb]

Mastery spice does NOT count towards the 12 in the 2 day mini challenge :-(. :-( double bummers! We're going to have to do it the hard way folks

[smtexas]

Has anyone purchased the value pack of 25 carrots, 25 beef and 1000 hats? If so, do you have to have pantry space for the 50 ingredients?

[seto1978]

I had one come and one not come. Restarted my game and still nothing. The previous time they both came together so I'm confused.

The same happened to me. Waiting to see if next time both appear together

Does anyone know if master spice works? I hate to use mine if there is no benefit....

[lnztrekfan]

Has anyone purchased the value pack of 25 carrots, 25 beef and 1000 hats? If so, do you have to have pantry space for the 50 ingredients?

I just bought the value pack not thinking about how much room I would need but it didn't matter it took my pantry up and over by 36 items! I now have to figure out what I have and can cook! :) Also by purchasing it, it took my hats up over what I needed to unlock the cornbread and now I have to get cooking on that!


Does anyone know if master spice works? I hate to use mine if there is no benefit....

The mastery spice DOES work on mastering the recipes but it will not help when you have to COOK the recipes 12x in the 2 days. You actually have to cook 12 times.


Also side note my two characters didn't show up together my most recent drop.
I knew it had been enough time for her so I visited a neighbor and came back and she came in! :) Good Luck everyone!

[lnztrekfan]

Chrissydid So far the only stamp I recieved was the very first one which was bronze.

Are any of these recipes permanent? I'm unclear on what the ultimate reward/prize is for completing this confusing quest.

[lnztrekfan]

Are any of these recipes permanent? I'm unclear on what the ultimate reward/prize is for completing this confusing quest.

It is kind of confusing with a lot going on. I believe the one on the Celebration stove will be permanent. It says locked by goal which is the Culinary Cowboy goal where you have to get the trophy, to get the trophy you have to complete the How the West was Yum goal. That recipe is Ultimate Chili. Now I'm only guessing on this one but on the goal Sheriff of Flavor town you have to master chili recipe there is a little Sheriff man as the reward so perhaps after completing he becomes permanent visitor and drops beans. I'm pretty sure the Ultimate Chili recipe will be permanent because it takes so much to unlock it. It would seem we would need a permanent recipe on the cowboy stove unless it becomes a useless appliance after event.

[Friday_1]

What does "restart your game mean"? How do you restart?

[MauiLady7]

Can someone please verify if the dinner stove produces hats? I see a few of my neighbors cooking french toast. It seems like a lot of tapping, but no more than making pizza bread I guess. Plus the servings are very low! Thanks

[ghjvcucjb]

What does "restart your game mean"? How do you restart?

You need to manually close out your game then reopen/restart it. Once you open your game it remains on even if you click off of it and go somewhere else. To close out and restart any program, double click your devices' start button, then all the programs appear but in smaller screens, then swipe each one up. That will close them all out. Then go to your icons, click on your game and it will restart.

I was wondering the same thing. Unfortunately all my counters are full so can't make anything new.

WISH we could get more counters every time we get a new appliance or x amount of new recipes. It's becoming impossible to even make and display one recipe per stove on the counters. We have so many recipes. At this point I can only make the same handful of recipes over and over OR not play for days to empty my counters.

We have so many recipes. At this point I can only make the same handful of recipes over and over OR not play for days to empty my counters.

I hear you ghjvcucjb! I hate discarding the whole counter! Well I just totaled up the hats. You get 3000 hats for level 1 & 2 of each chili. That's 12,000 hats right there! Plus 1000 for each side dish. That's 15,000. Why are we so worried about hats?? We should worry about the goals. Forget all this tapping! Am I adding this up right before I stop making items I no longer need?

If I'm adding this up right then we shouldn't cook anything unless it's necessary for the 13 days and that should help clear those counters!

[MauiLady7]

Does anyone know if master spice works? I hate to use mine if there is no benefit....

The mastery spice works for the chili only. It doesn't count for the side dishes. I just finished my sheriffs chili with the help of the mastery. Now if the beans can keep up, I'm attempting the bandits!

[MauiLady7]

You only get the 1000 hats for each side dish if you cook them in 2 days I missed that part! A big part. The onions you have 4 days! Dang back to cooking up a storm! If anyone has the levels it sure would be nice about now!

However I just got 3000 hats for cooking the last sheriffs chili! I wonder if that's because I did it in under 2 days??? A little input would be nice for us hat hungry cooking fools.

[yklub]

Really hate to nag.... But this quest is so confusing and has too much going on....burned out already on just trying to understand it all..... :(

[smtexas]

I just "won" cornbread recipe I wish the rewards were more like umm maybe 5 hammers or shovels? Thanks for all the good info here, the deep fryer gives 8 hats.

[ghjvcucjb]

Really hate to nag.... But this quest is so confusing and has too much going on....burned out already on just trying to understand it all..... :(

My suggestion would be to do the goals in the order they pop up. Many of them overlap.

Yah, I'm trashing most of the items I make at this point. Such a waste. I pick the one highest hats item per stove and when I run out of ingredients I just let the stove sit. I wish I could make the quickest but then it sits there for half the day until a counter clears or I get tired and trash.

WE NEED MORE COUNTERS If we're going to continue to get new recipes and appliances!!! Please S8/TL

Stewed Beans goal ........
I need 16 visits for required beans (16x3=4x12), with visits at every 1.5 hours that's 24 hours (or 21 hours), so with 2 days to do it, I need to collect 8 times per day, meaning even if I collect exactly every 1.5 hours it'll still take 10.5 hours a day (assuming 1 at the start of each day, so it's not 12 hours).

Cornbread goal........
Yet the other recipe is easy and can be done in 7 hours (2 ovens), yet has 3 days to do it, not 2.

Both goals give 1000 hats! Why?! One is really easy, the other extremely difficult (you have to be able to collect beans every 1.5 hours for almost all of your waking day for 2 days). Plus the easy one gives you 3 days to complete (when you can easily do it in 2 days, or even 1 day, by their standards) and the hard one only 2 days to complete.
Did they get the day allowance the wrong way round with these?!

[dollydaydreams1]

The timer on the Cornbread quest line in my To-do list says 3 days, however when I open it, it says 2 days! Can anyone from S8 or one of the mods check on this please?

32089

For some reason I can only upload one of the pics :confused:

[EnigmaaSilverblade]

That 2 days stewed beans quest is about impossible. Especially when they only drop 3 beans, when they bother to show up. Then you have to get on every 1.5 hours. Didn't know that my first day, so it's already messed me up.

Would buy the steaks, carrots and hats but don't have enough pantry room. Making these items take up space or disappear is not very profitable for the company as it lost my sale on about every quest because of this. I learned this my first quest when I bought items and lost most of them! You would think purchases would be like special items in inventory that don't take up space. Who here has 50 spaces in their pantry for steaks and carrots???

[cquinn32]

This quest is a mess!! This bandit person is making impossible by not showing up half the time!! "And that's all I have to say about that"

[lnztrekfan]

Hi! just finished the sheriff chili and a new goal popped up! Neato Bandito!
Mastering Bandit Chili. If it's like the Sheriff Chili you get 3000 hats for mastering levels 1 & 2. For mastering level 3 you get a little bandit!
32090

[kellbell710]

Can't catch a break with this game. The last time the bandit visited, she only dropped 2 beans instead of 3.

[littledarc3]

Can we get confirmation on which recipes will be permanent? Thanks.

[Alohatami]

Aside from mastering the chiles, and trying to do the side quests, are there any recipes that produce more than just a handful of hats? It seems that the rate of hat drops from cooking food is almost pointless. There should be some recipe that drops 50 - 100 hats per cooking, or making 22,000 hats is going to be impossible. At least that's how I feel. And it would also be nice if the bean droppers occasionally dropped extra beans. I'm trying to decide if I should spend gems or not on the stewed beans quest, as I'll be lucky to get 10/12 done before my timer runs out. Sorry to be so whiny, but I'm just frustrated by something that's supposed to be fun and challenging, not daunting and seemingly impossible.

[kellbell710]

This quest is a mess!! This bandit person is making impossible by not showing up half the time!! "And that's all I have to say about that"

I totally agree. This being glued to my iPad for these ridiculous timed goals is insane. Way to try and ruin my holiday weekend S8. So glad I didn't buy more gems. I had planned to but after the bandit *****ed me out of beans I said forget it. At least the cornbread task is doable.

[silvertiger74]

Am I missing something? We essentially have to wait 3 hrs to cook 1 x beans. And it's only worth 1000 hats. However if we use beans for bandit chilli instead that one is worth 3000? Since they use the same beans , isn't the point collecting hats?

Unless you have that illness that says you must master all new dishes. LOL

You must master all the new dishes, plus make cowboy coffee 35 times and now collect 22,000 hats for the ultimate chili recipe! yikes! So each side dish completed helps with the hat goal. Right now I'm at 13,851 hats and I'd be further if the Bandit was more reliable.

And it makes me wonder, if they could open the Food Truck to take all the dumped servings and x amount of servings dumped and a player gets the choice of an item from Cid the Builder?
The Food Truck could be a "Feed the Homeless"
Better go more stuff to dump.

To master Bandit Chili 6,11,



Does anyone know what the coffee recipe is?

32092

sunshine257 your comment has me cracking up! Yes maybe we could exchange dumped I mean donated food for hats hmmm?

To master Bandit Chili 6,11,

Posting a pic of Ketchup Cowboy! Reward for mastering Sheriff Chili. He takes up two spaces and is animated. He "draws" ketchup bottles from his holster! Too cute! Come visit to see him in action!

[MauiLady7]

Thanks beckycarter for the coffee levels! Do you know the level on the tumbleweed onions as well? Also was it just luck that I got 3000 hats for mastering sheriffs chili? If not does one get extra hats for the bandit chili?

Also is it just the ultimate chili recipe that is permanent? Do you have a copy of the recipe? We are all anxious to find out what it involves after we all have callouses on our fingers from this heavy tapping that we are doing!

Does anyone else find it funny that tumbleweed onions doesn't use any onions but does use potatoes?

[tuffyjkitten]

So I was unable to finish the stewed beans in 2 days goal. Should I be saving those beans for the bandit chili now? Is there any point in finishing the 3rd mastery in stewed beans once that timed mini-goal expires? Aside from the plaque, of course...

[regokool]

Dear Storm8
Can you please explain how to complete Wild West Quest on task to do "How the west was yum!"

32098

[cuted1011]

I totally agree. This being glued to my iPad for these ridiculous timed goals is insane. Way to try and ruin my holiday weekend S8. So glad I didn't buy more gems. I had planned to but after the bandit *****ed me out of beans I said forget it. At least the cornbread task is doable.

So I'm not the only one that is getting *****ed out of beans? I emailed S8 because my beans that I collect each morning are not registering in my storage and if the sheriff and the bandit both show up its a miracle. Had to use gems to finish my stewed beans. GL.

[smtexas]

I didn't finish in time either! I was one short. Is there an actual timer somewhere to check how much time is left on these mini goals? I would move on to the bandit chili and finish the mastery on stewed beans later.

[anicak84]

Does anyone else find it funny that tumbleweed onions doesn't use any onions but does use potatoes?

No, I find it AWESOME, bc onions take 8 hours to refresh and potatos "only" 4 :k

[anicak84]

It would be nice to have a list of hats drop per recipe on the first page, I think I saw a list but I can't find it anymore?

[dollydaydreams1]

I'm not impressed that the Stewed Beans task started without an option for delaying it! I work over the weekend and I've had to use gems to finish. I couldn't risk not collecting 1000 hats :( Also, I managed to complete the Cornbread in 24hrs, which makes it seem silly for it to have a much longer completion time.

[cquinn32]

I also was not able to finish the stewed beans goal but not from lack of trying on my part!! I'm sure they had to have mixed up the days to complete with the cornbread goal but you'll never hear it from them. If I come up 1000 hats short I'm going to be so upset!!

[smtexas]

Each stove drops the same amount regardless of the recipe, BiggerBubbles posted an excellent list on page 5 of this thread Sorry I don't know how to quote it.

This is what I have found regarding the hats;

Salad Bar 5

Wine Maker 8
Pizza Oven 2
Jubilee Oven 2
Celebration Stove 2
BBQ Grill 2
Chateau Stove 4
Commercial Oven 4
Diner Oven 2
Commercial Range 2
Dinner Stove 0
Festival Stove 0!!!!

Haven't checked the Deep Fryer, but since I've mastered all those recipes I only get it out when I have to.

This needs to go to first page :D

[chrissydid]

@Inztrekfan thanks for the stamp update! I haven't been able to participate with this quest unfortunately. But at least I'm not missing a stamp :D

[cappucina]

Thanks for all the info, BeckyCarter and others. I am now saving up my sugar for the coffee while working on the tumbleweed bake side challenge.

I was able to do cornbread in less than 2 days, but I had to spend 30-40 gems to complete the Sheriff Chili. I used gems to get the hats. I was on airplane and could not get enough beans. I am not sure if I could have finished that side quest even without the disruption to wifi.

Edited to add: deep fryer gave me hats but can't remember how many.

[lnztrekfan]

I can add:
Deep Fryer: 8
Taco bar: 2
Japanese Cart: 2
Diner Stove: 0
Snowy Oven: 0
Ghostly Oven :0


Also only mastering levels 1 & 2 of the chilis gives you the bonus 3,000 hats. You get the Ketchup Cowboy for 3rd level of Sheriff Chili and Dusty Mustard for the Bandit Chili. I have found that sometimes one or the other character doesn't show up at the same time. I then visit a neighbor and come back and they are waiting or arrive soon afterwards.

To complete the goal How the West was Yum, you have to collect the hats. Cook items to collect hats and do the other pop up goals for the huge bonuses. The cornbread goal was relatively easy. Try to start hoarding beefs, potatoes and sugar. You will need 42 creams (14 cooks) 54 potatoes (18 cooks), 105 sugars (35 cooks) to do the goals. Beefs vary if you have mastery spices.

[lnztrekfan]

Does anyone else find it funny that tumbleweed onions doesn't use any onions but does use potatoes?
Lol! Yes I thought so too! But am super happy it didn't take onions as well! Maybe it should've been called a hash.

@Inztrekfan thanks for the stamp update! I haven't been able to participate with this quest unfortunately. But at least I'm not missing a stamp :D

You're very welcome!:) I'm trying to do my daily goals as well to get my stamps! Does anyone know if everyone should be getting the daily stamp goals? One of my dear neighbors isn't getting her daily goals.

[kellbell710]

Will we need pinto beans for anything besides sheriff's chili? Or I was that it? I hope not. I mean he is consistent in his visits AND the amount he drops. The visit was from the bandit was a nightmare! Never on time and inconsistent in her drops. The stewed beans cost me 50 gems because I needed those hats. However, today she came in and dropped 6 beans. And is there any advantage in mastering the beans besides the framed picture?

Is this always the case though? And same for everyone? Because I just got 4 from Salad Bar.....

[dollydaydreams1]

I'm only getting 4 hats from the salad bar too....

[patayita]

I think it depends on which recipe you cook. I get 5 Ten Gallon Hats from Cobb Salad and 4 from the other recipes on the Salad Bar.

[gracelinda]

I have 33 useless red beans a zero black beans.....really need more black beans.....

[MauiLady7]

WOW i just hit 22,000 hats and I won the recipe, and I am not even done cooking all the recipes! Its on the casino stove with a high coin value. Cooks for one hour, 200 servings, and and nets 2000 coins. I told you they gave me those extra 3000 hats for mastering the sheriffs chili. I am only on level 2 in the coffee. I still have 3 more Bandits chili to make too, along with 3 more tumbleweed onions! I am going to send a picture from my iPad cause for some reason it's not letting me on my Mac.

Who Hoo! I'm still missing the other cowboy, so of course I'm going to finish those goals as well.

Just so everyone knows what I was cooking, I concentrated on Margherita Pizza, fondue, and spaghetti, pizza bites, & OJ. I bought 2 value packs with the cream. Since the commercial range is S8's favorite appliance I own 4 of them. They come in handy during the cruises as well as the events. All 4 have been going pretty much non stop.

Too bad I don't have an open counter to put it on!

The timer on the Cornbread quest line in my To-do list says 3 days, however when I open it, it says 2 days! Can anyone from S8 or one of the mods check on this please?

For some reason I can only upload one of the pics :confused:
Seems Like its been fixed for the corn bread but it's the same for the tumbleweed onions.... 3 vs. 4 days....

ok the Cowboys/girl, has not showed up at all this morning. I have not played the game in ten hours. Anyone else having this issue?

Inztrekfan suggested to go visit a neighbor to get the bean dropper to visit and it works for me (when only one shows up)

Is anyone else having problems with their hat counter? I've been stuck at 79% of 22,000 for 2 days although I've finished/mastered everything but the coffee and have been cooking like a mad person around the clock.

[littledarc3]

Percentages won't go up fast because you are only getting small numbers of hats for the goal. You need 220 hats for 1%

[kellbell710]

I don't think this quest is doable without buying the starter packs that have 1000 hats in them , or being one of the lucky ones who got an extra 3000 hats by mistake.

[littledarc3]

Wait how did people get 3000 by mistake?

[kellbell710]

Someone posted about it earlier. Maybe I misunderstood what she was saying. She is already finished with the quest. Maybe I will finish if I sleep with my iPad for the next 10 days.

[cquinn32]

So after I earn the 1000 hats from cooking coffee 35 times are there no more goals to earn hats? I'm left to earn over 4000 of them just by cooking?

[yummy_bistro]

Which one is the casino stove? thx

[AimeiAmychen]

"daily 400 hats" is a steady pace to complete this quest.

if you left around 4000 hats at this moment, congratulation that you are on a quest completing pace.

22000 - 3000x4 - 1000x4 = 22000 - 12000 - 4000 = 6000 hats

6000 / 14 days = 428.57

so 429 hats a day is a daily target to complete.

I also reach 15732 hats now, with 2 more recipe bonus (coffee and Onions)

22000 - 15732 - 1000x2 = 4268

4268 / 10 days left = 426.8 hats a day.

Mothers' Day event is a nightmare because it punished the high level player.
I was forced to level up with too many exp get from doing those useless dishes I don't need and I don't want to cook.
This time is much better, so I don't complain.

[dollydaydreams1]

I think MauiLady7 might've meant the jubilee stove - although this game is available in several regions and languages, so maybe it is called both :)

I sometimes get 4 from the salad bar, sometimes 5.

I based my figures on the dishes I cooked and shared them as I thought it would help.
I have only cooked 2 things on the salad bar, both Cobb salad & vegie sushi. They both give me 5 hats. I didn't cook everything to check it out.

Also, I don't believe I have ever had anything from the festival stove, pretty sure I didn't when I wrote the list, but to get 2 hats from a dish that you can only cook once a day won't really get you far. I will check again in about 8 hrs when the chicken is ready.

So many questions:
- should I be cooking the beans recipes after finishing their timed quests?
- which one is the festival stove?
- should I level the timed recipes t? three stars?
- just got t? 59, is 60 the max level?

So many hats t? go I'm almost ready to give up :(

I can only speak from real life experience here.

That doesn't add up.

Whoops! Haha, that'll teach me not to post right after I've just woken up! I don't have a festival stove, I was thinking of the jubilee stove! So we both get 2 on that one :)

Thanks :) glad it's not just me, thought I might have just been mistaken!

[BiggerBubbles]

Well, once again I collected from the very expensive festival stove (was it really 800 gems I spent on that glowy contraption.....) anyway still 0 yes that's zero hats again and only 1 gem as usual. So for you people who are getting 2 hats from it, fantastic, but it hasn't changed for me since I posted my original list.

On the other hand I will shortly be only a few hundred from the 22000, then when I finally master the last of the coffee I think it will be time for a break, this has been way too demanding.

[cuted1011]

Is there a specific length of time a recipe has to take in order to collect hats? I was cooking Omelettes because I had the ingredients in my pantry and thought it would be a good idea to fill up all 3 stoves. No hats. Waste of counter space. I'll have to pay attention to the BLT's I'm cooking now to see if they produce or not. Orange Juice is only 10 minutes but a hard to get ingredient so maybe that is why it gives me hats???

NO, it's base on stoves, not time.

Diner Stove JUST DON'T GIVE YOU HATS. No matter how much time the recipe takes.

in the other hand,
Margarita Pizza: 10 minutes: 4 hats.
Cobb salads: 10 minutes: 5 hats.
Orange Juice: 10 minutes: 4 hats.

The HIGHER LEVEL stoves (Appliances) give you more hats.

It took me three days of around the clock cooking to go from 79%-80%

I understand this, it just seemed like I was cooking hundreds and hundreds of dishes a day and the counter should have been going up.


I can only speak from real life experience here. It took me 3 days of non stop cooking to go from 79%-80% (and that includes finishing all the goals in half the time provided so I must be cooking well) At that rate I still need 20% times 3 days per percent which would take me 60 days to finish this event. That doesn't add up.

PLEASE go to your Pantry and see the exact number of the hats.
They are in the SEASONAL PAGE.
Do not count on the percentage.

That will help a lot.

[kellbell710]

I just don't know how someone could be finished 10 days early. I have bought 2 starter packs, spent 50 gems to finish a task, and it will still be down to the wire trying to finish. I have been cooking non stop for days. I'm level 45 and I don't have any apppliance that gives more than 5. If I don't finish I won't be playing anymore.

agreed with you!
A few is 2 -_-

[sunshine257]

Yippee! I'm finished! Woo hoo!
Thank you to everyone who posted. I couldn't have done it without your ideas, help and encouragement.
P.S. Didn't buy any packs, didn't get any extra 3000 hats.

[GC5410]

So if you do all the goals (including timed) you get 16000 hats? Meaning you have to accumulate another 6000 from small cooking drops (between 2 and 8 each time)?

So far I've got 14000 from goals (I just have 1000 from coffee left, because I missed the first timed goal) and about 16000 altogether, so I must have got about 2000 from small cooking drops. I have another 5000 to get from small cooking drops then. I'm only 2000 towards 7000, after several days, so it's going to take me quite a while!

Anyone who has finished has presumably made 16000 from goals (or 15000 at least) and/or 6000 (or 7000) from cooking a lot (mostly 2 or 4 hats per dish I guess, plus a few 5 or 8 hats per dish if you have those appliances) - cooking between about 1500 and 3000 dishes (or more). So well done if you've finished already, because that's a lot of cooking! :)

Although if you have 20+ appliances that give hats, it's not too bad - it's the coffee that takes up all the time (cooking 35 hours on only 1 appliance, collecting/starting every 1 hour!).

[anicak84]

At least this is less of a nightmare than Mother's Day event :P But I'm not sure I'll make it.

[Alohatami]

At least this is less of a nightmare than Mother's Day event :P But I'm not sure I'll make it.

I find this event to be much harder than the Mother's Day event. I missed the first 1,000 hat side quest (meant to finish it with gems because knew I wouldn't be able to do it just by cooking, but got busy in real life and the quest expired). When I finish the onions and coffee, I will still have about 5,400 hats to go. At level 35, my best appliance drops 5 hats. I just don't see how I'll be able to finish in 8 more days.

When I finish the onions and coffee, I will still have about 5,400 hats to go. At level 35, my best appliance drops 5 hats. I just don't see how I'll be able to finish in 8 more days.

I see your poin. Mother day to me was a nightmare bc it took me like half the event to figure out I was cooking the wrong recipes. Then when I finally figured it out I had no motivation to keep trying, THEN 1-2 days to go on the event I start think it was doable if I hadn't given up...

Today will be a hard day to cook, not sure if it will affect me so bad.. Good luck to us all.

But mother's day had a stall to convert 1 flower into another 10,20,50 or 100 flowers. That was nice, I finished that event. With this, I am struggling

That flower stand made the Mother's Day
event do-able. That, and the fact that the bouquet dropper sometimes dropped 50, or even 100 bouquets. That's what's missing from this event - both a hat dropper, and a stand on which we can make more hats. I'm still cooking as much as I can, but I've pretty much given up hope of finishing.

[phatzs]

I'm probably gonna give up on this. I just don't see myself cooking dishes for another 5000 hats. This event wouldn't be so bad if the drop rate of the hats were a little higher or if we had something like the Mother's Day event where we could cash in one item and got a hundred hats for it. 22,000 hats is a lot to get when u don't get a lot from the drop rate. And I don't spend real money on games so the value packs are out of the question. GL to everyone still going, and congrats to everyone who has finished

[FartBlaster2000]

I'm starting to think that collecting that many hats is a tad unrealistic. I'm almost level 50 and struggling.

[kellbell710]

Yippee! I'm finished! Woo hoo!
Thank you to everyone who posted. I couldn't have done it without your ideas, help and encouragement.
P.S. Didn't buy any packs, didn't get any extra 3000 hats.

Congratulations. Maybe you could give the other players struggling in this event tips since it was so easy for you to finish so early and all without any purchased packs or extra hats...etc.

[MysticOrchid]

It is possible to finish this. I bought some extra gems to finish it days early because I don't have the time like I usually do for this game. Of course if you have most stoves and at least double of them along with stocked out markets and such you can collect hats through out the day. I was only 3k away and I had 10 days to go to finish. I just didn't want to keep playing every 30 minutes all day long.

[BiggerBubbles]

I finished this yesterday. I didn't buy any packs, used maybe 2 mastery spices accidentally. I have mastered everything but cowboy coffee, 17 to go. I have 2 of every appliance, but 3 of commercial range, (bought this a while ago, very good descision). I am lvl 60, retired so have plenty of time to play. This would have been very hard for people who worked full time. I feel for them.

Just one last thing, has anyone mentioned that the Ultimate Cowboy Chili recipe does NOT give gems? This may have been in the thread, but I didn't notice it. I would really have hoped that for all the work involved it would have. Good luck everyone.

[sunshine257]

kellbell710 - my tips?
Let's see - one tablespoon of insomnia, several cups of retirement, with a dash of OCD thrown in for good measure.
Orange juice (two machines, extra fruit from market) then onto vege juice whilst waiting for oranges
BLT (two machines, extra stuff from market) cucumber sandwiches whilst waiting for bacon or brushchetta
Vege Sushie (two machines, extra stuff from market) then chicken salad
Pizza bread every six minutes
Commercial Range (two machines - focused on mastering one chilli at a time to fit into their timeframe) used mastery spice - then cheesecake until cream needed elsewhere then steak and eggs
Chateau Stove (one machine) Apple ginger chicken, ratatoille
Chateau Oven (one machine) strawberry shortcake, baked onion soup
Commercial Oven (two machines) margarettia pizza, baked salmon, meatloaf (two mixer making tomatoe sauce)
Dinner Oven (two machines) chicken broccoli casserole, quiche, sometimes if enough meat an occasional bitterbalen
Fryer (one machine) averages use twice a day because most flour and sugar was going into other recipes
Taco Station - I have all three recipes open, at least one recipe every three hours
I started with 16 mastery spices, mastered another 8 during quest.
From reading the Forums, I was able to work out to keep my mastery spices for Tumbleweek Onion as it needed so many potatoes and the potatoe turn around time was long.
I am Level 60, 200 item pantry, 11 market shelves, 8 herb plots
Also a veteran of the Mother's Day Challenge where it was harder on a higher level as we didn't get flowers.
And I have never dumped so much food, thrown out so much garlic before.
Since finishing I have gone back to "my normal" cooking style in the last 24 hours earned 604 hats.
Hope this helps.
Best of luck for successful completion.

Huge ShoutOut of Congratulations! to all the Chefs that have completed! I know that I am personally neighbors with at least 2 that have posted and finished and I can tell you these ladies and the others that have finished are some Iron Chef Champions in my book! They have worked their hineys off to finish:) And deserve some well deserved praise! I have 1 more coffee making to earn my bonus and then I have around 2,000 hats to go! Now I will confess I set an alarm and got up in the middle of the night to collect from that bandit! She seriously was a bandit in the fact that she robbed me of sleep!;) But I was able to finish that and every other challenge. So that was a much need boost of hats! And then I drug my behind out of bed to go to work in the morning. But I needed those beans! LOL!! And sadly now I have a ton of both of the beans in the pantry cause after mastering recipes I haven't used them.

BiggerBubbles! No Gems! �� I must have missed that too if it was listed. Congratulations on finishing! :)

Don't get discouraged just keep cooking:)

I had no idea the Mother's Day event had been made so much more difficult for higher level players. It seems they've done the opposite this time and made this event very difficult for lower level players. I'm pretty sure I have the max on all my appliances (Except for one oven that's around 160,000 coins. I used my coins to upgrade my butcher shop at the beginning of the event. And, I've been cooking so much with this event, I was actually also able to upgrade my vegetable stand the other day to help with the tumbleweed quest.) It seems like the level 60 poster above has two of a number of appliances; a bunch of those 2nd appliances are still locked for me. But I'm going to stop complaining. I have to remind myself this is just a game, and my world won't end if I don't unlock the special recipe or get the trophy. :)

[AimeiAmychen]

HAHA,

I saw a lot of high level players talking about the Mothers' Day Event.

Mothers' Day Event is a nightmare for high level players (higher than lv 56) because it gives NO WILD FLOWER (which equals 100 bouquets) and only ONE drop of bouquet per visit.

This time at least Storm8 didn't do that "double standard" thing which makes players really MAD.

Everybody has to be tortured by the "hat collecting".

For me, the most annoying part is I really don't want to cook the recipe I already mastered.

So I am doing all the more difficult recipes and collecting hats slowly (but also steady growing.)
for example the only recipe I not yet master from Deli Station is Triple Decker Sandwich.

I will do those fast recipe at the last moment if I really can't catch up with the collecting pace.

[smtexas]

I co-sign lnztrekfan! I love this game and appreciate this forum for all the good info! I'm impressed that folks are finishing this quest. I have about 17 coffees to make and 5000 hats to earn but I'm not worried yet. 😊

Wow! That's a lot of cooking! I didn't finish Mother's Day so I would like to get this one but the highest level of hats I can get is 5 from my appliances. We shall see. Thank you for all the tips. There is something in there for everyone on every level. :)

[mrootje]

I'm stuck for days on 73% from the 22000 Ten Gallon Hats. The 73% won't change, whatever I do or cook. Bug? I don't know how many hats I really have now ;-(

Look in your pantry for the exact amount, in the special events tab!

[tuffyjkitten]

Probably not going to finish, need to collect 600+ hats a day and I don't have that kind of time. Should finish cowboy coffee so I will master all the new recipes but that's probably it for me. Congrats to all who completed the challenge!

When you complete the coffee goal, you will get 1000 hats!

I am at just over 15000, 7 days left... i think im good....

[ethan1brothers]

so what stove do you cook the chilli on ? we actually won the event without needing to finish the coffee and we cant find it ......

[hannneli]

so what stove do you cook the chilli on ? we actually won the event without needing to finish the coffee and we cant find it ......

it's the celebration stove

[dollydaydreams1]

It's on the Jubilee Stove.

[tuffyjkitten]

Already taken into account. We need 22000 and I have 16955. That's 5045 left, minus 1000 for the coffee goal leaves 4045. There's about 5.5 days left, so that's 735 a day. Not gonna happen. I have better things to do than make pizza bread every 6 minutes.

I agree! I'm getting rather bored trying to make this happen. I don't have the time to be glued to the game around the clock. They either need to lower the amount needed for total hats, or raise the drop rates per recipe/appliances

Ha this was exactly what I did. Grinding out endless servings of pizza bread is no fun, but I did it so I could finish this quest early and take a break before the next event.

I'll second that. I've already finished all the side quests and have about 17.3K hats. Even if I stayed glued to my phone 24/7 cooking all I possibly could, there's no way I could finish at my level. So I'm just going back to my normal playing MO. I have to say, though, thanks to this quest, I have managed to upgrade my General Store, Butcher Shop, and Vegetable Stand to four items per restock. :D

[hqt081194]

I think it will be another useless recipe so I give up on it soon =))

Giddy up Grub, Cowboy Coffee!
Cook Cowboy Coffee 35 times in 5 days!
Rewards: Ten Gallon Hats +1000

^^^^^^I actually got 6 days for this! :)

Someone said earlier that you don't get gems for the Ultimate Cowboy Chilli - can anyone who has finished confirm, please?

I have the recipe and it does not give gems. :(

[Alohatami]

I have so many beans wasting away in my pantry. Too bad the little bean droppers didn't start dropping hats instead of beans once all the bean recipes were mastered. ;)

[13dracon]

Hey, everyone! I got my ultimate cowboy chili, and I was just wondering - is that the only recipe we'll get to keep off this event? Does the Cowboy Campfire become just another useless item in my storage afterward? Just curious - I kind of enjoyed having coffee available in my restaurant... :D Thanks!

[patayita]

Yes, the Ultimate Cowboy Chili is the only permanent recipe from this quest. The Cowboy Campfire will be empty after the ending of this event, so you can store it :)

[phatzs]

I've decided I'm not gonna try anymore with this event. I don't have the time to be glued to the game 24/7. The total number of hats in my eyes is unrealistic, especially the hat drop rate per appliance. I've done all side quests and I'm still 3000 + away from getting it. Congrats to everyone who has completed it, and good luck to everyone who is still trying.

[EnigmaaSilverblade]

I have almost 5,000 hats to get in 3 days. Despite cooking around the clock and fastest recipes possible on all appliances I have, it ain't gonna happen. I would say this goal is only possible to those at max levels with 2-4 of every appliance, Max pantry and Max pantry item refill.

I finished all goals except the stewed beans that wasn't possible for me. Still working on coffee. Really, what was the point of mastering chili's? Instead of giving us the hats we desperately needed, they gave us some stinky statues. I could care less about those things. Thankfully, this goal is only for a single recipe that gives you 2,000 coins. That is so not worth the stress.

[yummy_bistro]

I finsihed all goals, mastered all beans reci[es

still have 3629 hats to get in 4 days -_-

cooking whole day except bed time of coz, how to get more hats??

[cfhebjhjfleabchljfeabcaejfhcb]

This event is definitely not for me. I also didn't bother with the horrible Mother's Day event. Few days into the Mother's Day event it was pretty clear it would be a very time consuming event so I just gave up and couldn't be bothered. Same as I just can't be bothered with being glued to a game 24/7 to collect some trivial hats for 1 recipe.

I actually did enjoy the mini side quests during this event even though it was a little confusing at first. I do think the total goal is unrealistic and too much.

And what's up with the sherif and bandit dropping beans for 2 whole weeks ? pretty much after the first week they're not needed.

[GC5410]

The only events that I have done that has ever given out gem recipes was cruises


I have the recipe and it does not give gems. :(

Thanks

[yummy_bistro]

I have the recipe and it does not give gems. :(

what are the earnings per dish?
thx

[ellymosh]

I've pretty much just treated this quest like I treated the Mother's Day quest - just doing my own thing, trying to master dishes and save up coins. I've learned not to be pressed about finishing these types of quests anymore.
I hope we start getting more events like the BBQ event from last year or the yeti one from January, where we get new appliances full of new recipes to learn during the course of the event. I think the addition of having to make things like barbecue sauce or the marshmallows makes the event much more exciting and fun. I'm just not a fan of these types of events, where the theme of the goal just seems to be... do what you always do, except do it 24/7. :/
But that's just me!

[yummy_bistro]

I have 18590 hats, with around 3 days to finish

what do we have to cook to get that seriously? I have reached a point I am sick of cooking the same thing for a week now

[dollydaydreams1]

I have 18590 hats, with around 3 days to finish

what do we have to cook to get that seriously? I have reached a point I am sick of cooking the same thing for a week now

I cooked A LOT of Pizza Bread, BLT, Margaritas Pizza, Orange Juice, Cobb Salad etc. All the dishes with a short cooking time. I was making 1000 hats a day, but I did have to spend most of those days playing all day! I finished with 6 days left on the event, but 3 of those I was at work most of the day. It was a pretty boring quest, although I'm glad I have the new dish - it's the only non-gem dish that doesn't need sugar on the Jubilee Stove.

[Nuicakes]

Yeah, I've gone from craving pizza bread to gagging every morning when I start up.

We need a HAT FAIRY who visits and changes beans into hats and leaves antacids.

Honestly though, these quests & cruises have me running ragged and I'm getting burnt out. No time to do anything but time recipes and plan inventory.

[my2place]

Not gonna make it here ... without the goals for 1000 hats at a time, I'm barely chugging along, haven't even made 1000 hats on my own since I finished the side goals. Oh well ...

[kuppikahvia]

Plain impossible for me, especially with a rl family ;D
Got all the 1000+ hat side quests but I am still at 77% and it won't move from there. Zero chances in 2 days without more extra hats, so I may as well give up....sick of cooking at the moment anyway :((

I cooked cobb salad, brushetta, oange juice, all the gems recipes non stop and repeat the sheriff stuff etc
wow 1000 a day... amazing , that means you play non stop and have enough phone battery last whole day lol

[anicak84]

I finished 2 days ago (I tried to run bc my internet won't be very reliable the last few days of the event) and my eyes still hurt. I believe I only finished because I was able to get the timed side quests on time and get those big amounts of hats. Have no idea how people can get it done without the hats from side quests.

[grntown]

Done-after a lot of effort still 4000 away with less tha 24 hours, and played until I was really sick of it! Don't know why I started this quest but after I was about halfway through it didn't want to just give up! A challenge is fun, but this was a bit more than a challenge - not much fun!!

[mle22772]

Anyone know the earnings for this dish? Debating to use gems to finish it or not.

[yummy_bistro]

Anyone know the earnings for this dish? Debating to use gems to finish it or not.

I want to know too...still need 3k + to go... less than 20 hours

[anicak84]

Ultimate Cowboy Chilli cooks 1 hour, earns $ 2.000 and 200 serves, 1 meat, 2 chicken, 3 cheese, DOES NOT pay gems. Cooks in Jubilee oven (purple one with a star), totally not worth it in my opinion, BUT I did finish it early bc I'm totally addicted and want to have everything...

[lnztrekfan]

I'm not sure if it's an option for everyone but check your value pack. Mine is now 4.99 for 20,000 coins, 25 sugar and 5,000 Hats!! Good luck! Any thoughts on the newest event coming? My thought is a cruise but as to what theme... perhaps Christmas in July or a really late 4th of July event. Maybe something to do with Bastille day?

[kingkobra73]

I have the same offer right at the moment.
I also noticed that if you want to skip the last step the amount of gems needed reduces the closer you get to completing the event. I would need around 1900 hats to finish right now and not a chance whatsoever to make it. Or I'd need 92 gems to skip that step.

I wonder if we still get the recipe if you choose to skip the last step.

[gracelinda]

I am pretty sure if you skip that step you get the trophy. Using the trophy should give you the recipe. I have 128 gems to go. Will probably spend the money to get the recipe. The more recipes the merrier.

You would get the recipe! If you use the gems to skip the last step, the gems actually complete the number of hats you have which would unlock the recipe, idk if you have to cook it before time expires though.

[ghjvcucjb]

I'm about 1500 short of finishing. That was playing hard core every day and finishing all the mini goals in the beginning in half the time required. This was one of the longest, most tedious, not fun events ever. Glad it's over. Never want to see another cowboy, ten gallon hat or beans in my restaurant again.

[kooky panda]

This has been the only Quest that I have not completed!:(

[littledarc3]

Was it because you were playing a certain AR game and couldn't stop catching them all? I can close to not finishing myself. Lots of hats required.

[kooky panda]

I was on vacation over July 4th and missed about 3 days of playing every few hours!

[cfhebjhjfleabchljfeabcaejfhcb]

That's good to know then thanks! I have lots of gem recipes from various cruises so I might actually spend the gems to get it.
If I have to cook it I could always spend a few quick services.

Personally I feel the amount of play time needed to finish this one normally is over the top. I did finish all the mini goals as well

[FartBlaster2000]

This was absolutely, by far, no contest, THEE WORST mission I have ever seen since I started playing restaurant over a year ago.

[smtexas]

It's over! I was at 90% on hats. I wonder if the developers sit around high fiving each other when they create one people will spend money on.

[yklub]

This has been the only Quest that I have not completed!:(
Me too!!! So disappointing..... Especially with only 60 hats away!!! :mad::(

Ok so since I didn't complete the quest, I don't get to keep my earned coffee recipe?? I thought it was permanent....?

So where are the two recipes for the stove? I don't seen why you can't add the other ones on. It a waste of space. And yes I restarted my phone twice.

Little annoyed the stove doesn't have recipes to keep. Why make us buy a new stove and not keep at least ONE thing on it?

The Ulitimate Cowboy Chili was the prize for completing this event, all other dishes will disappear and you can put your stove in storage.
