Jam a door with its corpse and let all the goblins in. Hey, nobody said it had to be a weapon against your enemies.

Don't forget that prepared lavish meal actually has 5 instances of quality level: quality of the meal itself and qualities of each minced component. Disregarding preferences, the chance to make a masterpiece is slightly more than 1/4, so to make truly five-in-a-row masterwork meal a cook only have approximately one chance in one thousand. Thus between your 35300 roasts you actually only have about 36 masterpieces. Not 36 stacks even! Think about that. I suggest you centering your fortress' industry on making fully masterwork roasts, dumping them on the altar in Food God's shrine (made from rock salt probably?) and praying phrenetically. Or whatever. It should justify the creation of countless piles of food. And excess ones could be sacrificed.

Is there a limit on caravan numbers? I guess they would come back with more wagons if they got a lot of profit last year...

Fire masterwork meals at invaders and merchants by constructing a minecart item shotgun.

The +cat tallow roast+ strikes the elf merchant in the head, jamming the skull into the brain and tearing apart the brain!

Somewhere in a dark tower, a lone goblin survivor sits trembling in a corner.  Those who approach can only make out a quiet, repeated whimper...

"The plump helmets... so many plump helmets..."
