TheWoWDBConfused me initially. When you get the quest, there's a chest at the bottom of the steps from the flight master. Made out of bones.
Open it and you'll get the recipes. I had to open it a second time to then get the Bones of Defeated Enemies to make the Crushed Bones, to then make the Brutal Oil to finally make the Draught of Grotesque Strength.Thanks Blizz, who looks in a chest twice!

It wasn't obvious to me what to do at first, but it's all in your Alchemy window. You get everything you need from the chest right next to the flight master when you land at Theater of Pain.
- Open up the chest and loot the recipies and 6 Bones of Defeated Enemies.
- Using the first Alchemy recipe, create 6 Crushed Bones from the 6 Bones of Defeated Enemies.
- Use the next recipe to create 2 Brutal Oil from the 6 Crushed Bones.
- Finally use the last recipe to create the Draught of Grotesque Strength from the 2 Brutal Oil to complete the world quest.
Super easy and rewards some nice herbs.
Thank you for the very useful info. I like that in this quest everything you need is provided, I found it very easy to do.
