About this project
What does Solar Cooker add?
Solar Cooker
This Minecraft mod adds a Solar Cooker.
Dependencies
The Fabric / Quilt version needs the following mods:
- Fabric API (Github, Curseforge, Modrinth)
- Cloth Config API (Github, Curseforge, Modrinth)
Features
It acts like a smoker but needs sunlight instead of fuel.
In default configuration all smelting recipes (before 1.21 all smoking recipes) are working in the Solar Cooker and they need 4 times more time than in a vanilla Furnace.
The mod is configurable and you can change the recipes to "smoking" or "blasting". You can configure the cook time factor and blacklist recipes as well as add recipes via datapacks.

There is also a wiki where you can read all details about the mod.
