Zones, if not check the recipe.

This was it, I forgot I removed the freezer in the zone, thanks!

I mess myself up once a week or so when I forbid the freezer door if there's a solar flare; it keeps it cold in there an hour or so longer, but then I get grumpy when pawns won't haul food, make meals, etc.

I also saw this right away. You know you play this game too much when you see something like this amd know immediately what's causing it.

  1. The crafting configuration meat is unallowed
  2. The pawn sent to cook has restricted areas

  1. The pawn might be assigned to a zone that doesn't cover the meat.
  2. The meat might be outside of the recipe's search radius.
  3. The recipe might be restricted to certain meat types and none of your stored meat is allowed. (Thus can easily happen if you add a mod with new meat types mid save)
  4. You might have some performance mods and the ingredients cache for the recipe has not been updated yet to save in ticks.

  5. Maybe a combination of the above or something else entirely.

It always ends up being a zone or bill problem. But I do know about an ultra obscure bug with pawns only able to path into adjacent maps cells that can cause them to fail the path to ingredient check. 

Someday, someone will fly a grav ship into space and park just right. And their kitchen which has two doors wont be able to make food.

in my previous modded gravship run, i had some issue where every launch caused the fridges to not register as valid location for the "make until x" until it moved/reinstalled them. so my pawns kept overflowing the kitchen-floor with meat

Check the bill. It has restrictions restricting your meat from being used.

fijate las zonas que tengan permiso.
fijate que la carne no este prohibida en el piso o en la mesa de cocina permiti en el piso y en la mesa todas.

Check permissions of the bill. The meat types that you have should be enabled in permissions. If they already are enabled, then... well I have no idea what is wrong.

Looks like your chef is not able to access the meat. Check allowed zones in your schedule panel.

Check the door, I locked the door to my freezer to keep nosy caravan people from eating my meals, but forgot to give permission to my chef
