The Roast Pit is where Cooking happens in Kintara. Pick what to roast, set how many to cook, and the pit shows your exact current burn chance before you commit — no guessing.

How it works

Detail	Value
Cost	1 Wood per item cooked
Batch time	10 seconds per batch, regardless of quantity selected
Cookable items	Herring, Trout, Bass, Tuna, Chicken
Burn chance display	Shown live as a percentage before cooking, based on your current Cooking level

Select an item, choose a quantity with the +/- controls or MAX, then hit Cook. Each fish rolls independently against your current burn chance — a failed roll produces the burnt version of that fish instead (Burnt Herring, Burnt Trout, Burnt Tuna, or Burnt Bass), which is junk: no heal, no XP.

Burn Chance by Cooking Level

Cooking level	Burn chance
5 and below	30.0%
10	26.4%
20	19.3%
30	12.1%
40	5.0%

The rate slides roughly 0.7% per level between those anchors and never reaches zero — a mastered cook is a rare accident, not an impossible one.
