Raw Porkchop

A Raw Porkchop is a food item that is obtained by killing pigs, which drop 0 to 2 pieces of pork when killed. Raw Porkchops do not stack in your inventory. Pork can be cooked via furnace into a Cooked Porkchop which heals, as opposed to for raw. The most efficient way to cook porkchops without wasting suppiles is to use either a Stick or any of the three Saplings as your fuel source when cooking pork. Two sticks or saplings will make one cooked porkchop without wasted fuel.

A safe, easy way to farm pigs is to have a well lit (at least light level 9) area of grass within your base. Since passive mobs spawn on grass, the light will allow pigs to spawn there during night hours in the midst of properly placed torches.

Aside from healing the player, porkchops can also be used to heal tamed Wolves. Wolves will sit and beg when you hold a porkchop in front of them.
