Most FiveM crafting scripts pick a lane — food or drugs, legal or illegal. Let’s Cook Plus doesn’t make that choice for you. It’s a single resource that handles food preparation, drug manufacturing, moonshine production, and weapon crafting, all driven by the same appliance-based interaction system. The result is one install that extends your server’s crafting ecosystem across multiple RP archetypes without stacking separate resources.

Four Crafting Categories, One Resource

Each category has distinct mechanics rather than a shared template with different item outputs. Food and drink recipes work through kitchen appliances — grills, ovens, microwaves, stoves, food processors — activated via third-eye targeting. Drug crafting follows multi-step production with configurable inputs. Moonshine has a consequence baked in: stills can explode during production if a minigame fails, which creates a risk layer that keeps the activity from being a passive AFK earn. Weapon crafting adds bench-based manufacturing with failure risk — an unsuccessful craft can lose the workbench itself, not just the materials.

Key Features

• Food and drink crafting via kitchen appliances — grill, oven, microwave, stove, food processor
• Drug item crafting with configurable multi-step recipes
• Moonshine production with explosion risk on failed minigame
• Weapon, attachment, and ammunition crafting with bench loss on failure
• Optional minigames for all crafting types — adds skill element beyond menu clicks
• Police alert triggers on illegal manufacturing activity
• Consumable rewards when players eat or drink crafted items
• Props usable as items — enable interaction with printers, speakers, and other server props
• Third-eye targeting for all interaction points: ox_target, qb-target, qtarget supported
• xmmx_bridge adapter for custom framework and inventory compatibility — included in purchase
• ox_lib required; xmmx_keysgame optional for minigame integration
• Approximately 2,800 protected lines with accessible config layer
• Framework support: ESX, QBCore

The Consequence Design Sets This Apart

Still explosions and bench loss aren’t difficulty penalties bolted on as a nerf — they’re the mechanism that makes crafting feel like a genuine risk rather than a guaranteed output machine. A player who runs moonshine casually takes losses. One who learns the minigame timing earns more reliably. That skill expression is what keeps crafting content active past the first week instead of becoming a predictable grind loop admins have to emergency-patch.

Props as Items

The prop-as-item system extends beyond cooking. Printers, music speakers, and other environmental props become useable inventory items, opening up creative scripting for servers that want to expand the system into new RP contexts. Basic Lua knowledge unlocks custom item additions beyond what ships in the default config.

Framework Compatibility

ESX and QBCore are both supported through the xmmx_bridge layer, which is included in the purchase — no separate dependency to source. Custom framework adaptation is possible for development teams comfortable in Lua.
