I always butcher every single corpse and make cowboy hats from the skin. Also on raids i always try to incapacitate and capture every raider, even if they are incapable of everything and are missing 2 legs and 3 arms, because they still have organs, skin and meat.
Immediately after a raid, i run after the fleeing raiders if possible, while rescuing all my incapacitated colonists, then i capture all the incapacitated raiders, and after the more urgent problems are solved (like fires and heavily injuried colonists) and everyone eats and sleeps, i strip every single corpse then move them to a temporary stockpile where they wait to be butchered.
The human meat is fed to the prisoners that are missing a member and/or are incapable of a lot of stuff (AKA "organ bags").
I never:
Even if a prisoner is missing a member i still recruit them if they have good skills and a not very high recruitment difficulty. This was the case with 2 of my colonists, which are missing one of their hands each, until a trader arrives with a prosthetic arm. I tried recruiting someone without a leg, but after about 2 months trying i decided to just take her lung, kidney and heart out, then strip the skin to make hats for my 2 colonists without a hand, and feed her flesh to a legless tribal which i threw in a dark tiny dirty hole while waiting to get meds to take his organs too.

I never:
- Sell a prisoner, because selling the organs and cowboy hats is more profitable.
- Bury or cremate any corpse, unless it already started rotting and cannot be butchered (in that case i cremate).
- Euthanize or execute. It is always better to strip 3 organs then butcher.
