What is Raw Mutton in Minecraft?
Raw mutton is a food item in Minecraft that you get from sheep. By itself, it is not a very good food, only restoring a small amount of hunger. Its main purpose is to be cooked into cooked mutton, which is a solid and reliable meal. Since sheep are also the source of wool, raw mutton is often seen as a convenient byproduct of wool farming. This makes it a very sustainable food source for players who have large sheep farms for their building projects. It is a simple but useful piece of meat that ensures your wool farm can also keep you from going hungry.
How to get Raw Mutton in Minecraft
The only way to get raw mutton is by defeating sheep. Sheep are very common passive animals that can be found in most biomes with grass. When you defeat a sheep, it will drop one or two pieces of raw mutton, in addition to one block of wool. To get more raw mutton, you can use a sword with the Looting enchantment. A sword with Looting III can make a sheep drop up to five pieces of raw mutton. The best way to get a lot of raw mutton is to create a sheep farm. You can lure sheep into a pen with wheat and then breed them by feeding them wheat. This allows you to have a constant supply of both wool for building and raw mutton for food.
