Campfire Cooking Expansion

Your campfire just got a lot more interesting — smelt, cook, and blow things up, all without a furnace.

🔥 Campfire Cooking Expansion

Campfires are great for cooking... if all you ever eat is raw meat. Why stop there?

Campfire Cooking Expansion lets you throw anything that makes sense onto a campfire. Most of the transformations you can already do in a furnace now work on a campfire too, plus a handful of fun (and dangerous) extra interactions. No new blocks or items are added — it only extends the vanilla campfire, so compatibility risk with other mods is very low.

⚡ Special Interactions

  • 💥 TNT → Place it on a lit campfire and it explodes.
  • 🔥 Flint and Steel → Throw it in and it breaks down into separate Flint + Iron Nugget drops.
  • 💧 Water Bucket → Pour it on a lit campfire to douse the flame; the bucket empties out, with a hiss sound and steam particles.
  • 🧨 Gunpowder → A small, block-safe "pop" — a harmless, decorative explosion effect.
  • 🎆 Firework Rocket → Launches out of the campfire and bursts in the air, just like normal.

⚙️ Config

Every special interaction (TNT, flint and steel, water bucket, gunpowder, firework) can be toggled on or off individually in the config. Adding new cooking recipes is data pack compatible — a single JSON file is all it takes, no coding required.

📋 Requirements

  • Minecraft 1.20.1
  • Forge (see the file listing for the exact required version)
  • No other mods required, works standalone
