Raw Beef

Raw Beef is a food item dropped when cows are killed. Each piece of raw beef restores 1.5 units of the food bar and 1.8 hunger saturation.

Cooking
Steak can be obtained by cooking the raw beef in an oven with some kind of fuel. A pair of saplings or a plank is recommended for maximum cooking efficiency.

Alternatively, the player can use a flint and steel to set cows on fire to collect ready-cooked steak.

Advantages

 * Raw beef is relatively quick to get at all stages of the game without requiring specialized tools, and even faster to collect when the player has a stone sword (or better) and a sizeable herd nearby.
 * Unlike raw chicken, raw beef does not carry a risk of contracting food poisoning when eaten.
 * Cooking raw beef yields steak, a food item that restores 4 units of the food bar and 12.8 saturation when eaten.

Disadvantages

 * Raw beef's availability is dependent on the presence of cows within sight, which can be random at best and require extensive traveling in some cases, depending on the biome the player spawns in.
