There are two issues with this quest. First, when you have one of the ingredients and interact with the Hot Pot, the dialogue incorrectly appears at NPC Spedor instead of the pot, and Spedor fails to follow you to the pot. Second, there is an item check error: I had Brisket in my inventory, but it wasn't available as a dialogue choice. Instead, I was forced to select Tender Hock (which I didn't have in my inventory), and selecting it still successfully advanced the quest.
