Grease Fires

Description
For anyone who doesn't already know:
Animal fat is flammable. Experienced barbecuers will tell you it's not uncommon for a barbecue fires to grow larger the longer fatty meats are cooked over them. What could be only a few small embers can grow into a adequate heat source even before the meat is fully cooked. In fact, putting foods into fires and timing how long it takes for the food to become completely burnt is one of the ways researchers determine how many calories are in the food. Even the earliest of settlers knew of animal fat's flammable values and used it to stay warm and keep fires going.

What that means to this mod:
In case it wasn't obvious by now, this mod will slightly increase a fire's lifespan when meat is cooked over it. And, well, that's it. Pretty nifty, huh? A small, simple mechanic that I always felt should have been in the game.

If you have any issues, suggestions or comments, please feel free to leave them.

@Clarion77 That just gave me the idea of giving a chance to spawn a small fireling (monster) when cooking monster meat over fire lol.
He could even have a usefull drop that if burned would also create a larger monster that could drop an egg so you can tame one fireling and now you have moving fireplace lol.

Hey kids! Is your fire going out? Have you exhausted your entire supply of fuel supply and are in danger of death by Gru? Not to worry! Just cook some meat and that fire will be good as new in no time! Do you have eggs? Even better! Now you fuel your fire pit by frying eggs, then give them to your birdcage for a fresh supply!

Ya, man, if the sun can bake you to death, the camp fire should at least react to animal fat. Just a thought, maybe monster meat could have unforseen effects.
