A wyvern should be smoked, so in a smokehouse let it be hung
By its tail, and at the other end, by its tongue
But I know of no smokehouse big enough to smoke a dragon
So build two lines of bonfires, and drag your wyrm between, on a wagon I can't imagine the amount of seasoning you would need.
Maybe do the smoking close to a salt mine?

A wagon full of half-salt, half-pepper would do. Covered by boughs of mixed herbs to keep it from blowing away. ;} Sounds good.🙂

Good luck catching one, first!Wait until your ravening wyrm is asleep. Then trick a wizard into working a "move yon mountain" spell to prove their might. To drop atop the dragon, then put back to tidy up.
Often, squashed dragon gets moved, too, for easier collection.
Better cuisine through chicanery. ;}

Haahhaahahaha Gotta try that! If it’s a volcano, then all you need is gather a lot of friends and make sure the dwarves bring the ale. Reeling at imagining drunken dwarves dancing and singing not "It's Raining Men!" but "Burning Mountain Doth Erupt…And It's Raining Dragon!"
Pass me that decanter, will you? No, not the ale, the one full of something stronger.

Big hugs!!!

This is a good plan…but my dear friends remember to make sure you, brought down the dragon’s mate while you’re at it otherwise…while you’re smoking your fine dragon, you, my friend will become a cautionary tale when the mate makes you char-broiled humanoid! Wise advice, to be sure.
Personally, I prefer 'brute' dragon meat (fire lizard), not sentient, and both smoked AND pickled…but pickling a whole carcass is a LOT of work. So I settle for roast boar, or smoked deli meat.
I prefer local adventures, these days.
