Syntax

💡 Notes
Works on all platforms. Quantity is the second number (e.g., 10 for 10 meat). [verify] on Switch.
🎯 Tips & Tricks
Preserve it
Store raw meat in a Preserving Bin or Refrigerator with Sparkpowder to slow spoilage.
Taming efficiency
Use raw meat for early tames; cooked meat gives less taming effectiveness.
Bulk spawn
Increase the quantity number to 100 or 1000 for large taming projects, but watch inventory weight.
🔧 Troubleshooting
Meat not appearing
Ensure you have inventory space and are not in a no-build zone; re-enter the command.
Wrong item spawned
Double-check the item ID; 60 is raw meat, 61 is cooked meat.
