How to Get Cooked Mutton in Minecraft

Guide Java Bedrock

Quick answer: Kill a sheep to get 1-2 raw mutton (up to 1-5 with Looting III), then cook it in a furnace, smoker or campfire. If the sheep dies on fire, or from a Fire Aspect weapon, it drops cooked mutton already cooked. Cooked mutton restores 6 hunger and 9.6 saturation.

What you need

Furnace, smoker or campfire
Fuel
Looting weapon (optional)

Step by step

Find a sheep.
Kill it. It always drops 1-2 raw mutton, with a higher maximum with each Looting level (up to 1-5 at Looting III).
Cook the raw mutton in a furnace, smoker or campfire. Each piece taken from a furnace output gives 0.35 experience.
Or kill the sheep while it is on fire or with a Fire Aspect weapon: it drops cooked mutton directly.
Eat the cooked mutton for 6 hunger and 9.6 saturation.

Java vs Bedrock

Each piece taken from a furnace output slot gives 0.35 experience.

Versions: Each Looting level raises the maximum drop by 1.
