How to Craft Acacia Slab in Minecraft

Acacia Slab in Minecraft, drawn from the game's own block model. Half-height building block.

With a Crafting Table placed, 3 Acacia Planks are what Acacia Slabs need. The grid takes three Acacia Planks in a row. That comes out as 6 Acacia Slabs. Acacia Slabs double as furnace fuel: 150 ticks each, so 86 of them smelt a full stack of 64.

Acacia Slab Item ID and Give Command

The item ID for Acacia Slab is minecraft:acacia_slab. In commands the namespace may be left off, so acacia_slab works too. Checked against Minecraft Java 26.2.

Give yourself one
/give @p acacia_slab
Give a full stack of 64
/give @p acacia_slab 64
Give it to a named player
/give Steve acacia_slab 1

Cheats have to be on for Acacia Slab to appear this way, and the same command works on Bedrock Edition, where the name is written the same.

Overview

Acacia Slabs are half-height blocks. Mobs cannot spawn on top slabs, making them useful for mob-proofing. Acacia Slab uses a shaped recipe: the ingredients only work in the pattern shown.

How far back this one goes cannot be read out of the files: Minecraft 1.13 renamed hundreds of items and every recipe file with them, and the acacia slab was one of them, so the trail stops there.

The materials come together from a few sources: you will be working with acacia planks (craft from acacia logs).

Per Stack

Work a stack down, 64 acacia planks, and you land on 126 acacia slabs. You keep 1 acacia planks for later.
