One normally drains the blood out of a slaughtered animal before cooking it anyway…
Although I have to wonder if Stirges don’t carry bloodborne parasites and diseases like mosquitos sometimes do. They are pretty much a living shared needle. Giving the prisoner some time to build his strength back up and let his immune system go to work on anything he picked up (or if he fails that fortitude check, for any communicable diseases to become obvious) might be prudent.
Besides, eating him now wouldn’t be good… he’s been almost drained of "juices" by the bugs.

Huh. Sense of honor. I can respect that.
