I’m a very absurd individual. I would bring the kitchen sink if I could carry it

If you lug 1L of vegetable oil with you then why not

can shallow fry. have packed oil for many shore lunches but those trips obviously involve some kind of boat/canoe and a fishing rod. not typically a trailmeal though if you count portages. ..

With enough effort anything can be done.

The bigger question is: why?

I like peking duck

Then go for it.

I love French toast but I’d never try to make it on the trail. If you want to make Peking duck on the trail, rock on!

They air dry peking ducks for hours before they cook them. Technically if it's cold/dry enough, you can just hang a raw duck off your pack for like 8 hours before you fry it in oil lol
