Cooking station (Fallout 4)

Cooking stations are a constructible settlement object and crafting station in Fallout 4. They are found throughout the Commonwealth and are used to cook food from a variety of ingredients.

CharacteristicsEdit

Cooking stations, found throughout the Commonwealth, are workstations consisting of a cooking pot suspended over a campfire, a modified pre-war stove and a rotisserie spit. They facilitate the cooking of various food, drink and aid items from ingredients found in the waste or grown in settlements. Unlike Campfires in Fallout: New Vegas, cooking stations in Fallout 4 remove radiation from crafted foods and beverages.

Any cooking station built in a player character owned settlement will share its contents with the locations workshop and crafting stations. When removed from the settlement its contents will remain accessible from the settlements shared inventory.
