Hey guys! So my stove broke, FML. I've always gotten my fat from combinations of steak, eggs, and oil. So I'm looking for other ways to hit my macros while we get this thing fixed. I still have an oven btw.
I'm thinking my best bet is some kind of fatty meat that I can bake? I dunno though, most fatty meats I don't think would be good in the oven (sausage, steak, bacon, ground beef). I don't really like fish plus it's mad expensive here, so don't suggest salmon.
Thanks in advance!

Coconut oil, mct oil.
Medium chain triglycerides are easily converted into ketones, which your brain can use as an energy pathway when blood-glucose drops.
So mcts make it so that you can go longer without eating before mental fatigue kicks in. Has made a huge difference for me.
Grass-fed butter is also a good source of mcts.
That plus high doses of fish oil would probably make you feel good, and take care of a good part of your fat needs

This is what I'm most interested in. I don't have much experience with pork, but I didn't think things like ham would come out good in the oven, dunno why. I've always pan-fried (sauteed? seared? I dunno the terminology) all my meats except when I bake chicken breast and pork tenderloin (looking for more fat though).
Do you have a more specific recommendation, cut of pork? Recipe?

Because nuts and nut butters have already been mentioned, I'd say cold cuts like salami or sausages can be heated in an oven with little mess and they stay moist thanks to their fat content.
Also like domicron said, canned salmon or smoked salmon, sardines, etc. fatty canned fish could fill that spot too.GS Warriors, 49ers, and Sharks.

I also never usually roast any meat, so i cant exactly give you any recipes that i tried myself (However i have experience with eating whenever my parents cook it).
If you search roast or baked "some kind of meat" you will usually get recipes.
With that said, here's a recipe for pork loin. What you pretty much need to do is add some liquid for the meat to "rest" on and some seasoning.
For even extra fat add some bacon on top of the roasted meat!
Here is a nutritional table for you to choose meat cuts

Cook some eggs in the microwave, it's easy and they taste decent enough.

olive oil, coconut oil, seeds, nuts, fatty cuts of meat. If you have a blender and a coffee maker you could make coffee drinks to have throughout the day and blend the fat into those. Coffee, heavy cream, olive oil, coconut oil. Chit taste so f-ing good. I've made coffee drinks that taste like almond joys with protein powder, coffee, coconut oil and a few other things.

1. Never knew meat could only be cooked with a stove. Eggs too.
2. Didnt know oil could only be used when cooking with a stove
3. How is PB more cal dense than oil?
4. Other suggestions: cheese, cream cheese, avocado, cocnut, salad dressing, canned salmon, tuna in oil, or SPAM (lol)Founder of MMDELAD

It's like you didn't read the thread. I've commented on oil. Fatty cuts of meat is mostly what I'm looking for, so more specifics there please.
Also regarding the coffee suggestions, I don't really like drinking my calories. Plus, I really enjoying having all my calories >3PM, and coffee is in the morning so that wouldn't work well anyway.
Almost definitely incorporating that, TY!
1 & 2 - seriously, enlighten me. I'm a cooking noob. When I bake a piece of chicken, I don't use oil. When I cook a piece of steak, it requires a stove IMO. What pieces of meat are good baked? How/why would one use oil in the oven?
3. Haha it's not, you've spotted a hole here. I'll admit that I rarely use oil, only if I have no other way to get fat in. But I prefer tastier meats.
4. Cheese! Good **** bro. Just throw it on top of baked meats I'm thinking? Like chicken parm kinda thing? Canned meats is good too. Other people have said that and I'll use it.
Thanks again, keep it coming! Grocery shopping this weekend.

I read it, I'm just reaffirming the oils because you're against them and its an easy way to get some pretty good fats in your diet whether its adding it to meat without a stove or cooking in general, or to coffee but since you don't like coffee nvm. I add coconut oil to my fruit salads or when trying to come close to a Thai dish. With oils you can also drizzle that chit in salads, on sandwiches, soups, and tons of other stuff. Cooking pork in a pan in the oven with coconut oil is pretty wicked good stuff. Anyways..
Beef of any cut, preferably grass fed beef
Fish or seafood of any kind, preferably wild caught (anchovies, calamari, catfish, cod, flounder, halibut, herring, mackerel, mahi-mahi, salmon, sardines, scrod, sole, snapper, trout, tuna) Exception: Avoid breaded and fried seafood.
Pork: buy from a clean, local source to avoid possible bacterial infections.
Bacon and sausage: check labels and avoid those cured with sugar
Free range poultry (chicken, turkey, quail, cornish hen, duck, goose, pheasant)
Shellfish (clams, crab, lobster, scallops, shrimp, squid, mussels, oysters) Exception: imitation crab meat because it contains sugar and other additives)
Wild game (all kinds
Eggs: deviled, fried, hard-boiled, omelets, poached, scrambled, soft-boiled (I'm sure you could still do them in an oven)
Heavy whipping cream
Sour cream
Full fat cottage cheese
All hard and soft cheeses
Cream cheese
Unsweetened whole milk yogurt
I find it hard to give recipes because after several years of cooking in restaurants I've given up on them. I just grab things that I think would be good and just throw them together. Brings a whole new meaning to winder naza(sp). Seriously just about any meat you think is good will make a great sandwich or casserole, or even pizza. Meatloaf is another easy thing, its like a casserole. Pretty hard to mess those up, usually very newb cooking friendly. I like to cover with tinfoil to help prevent them from turning dry. Philly cheese steak, pork cutlets smothered with cheese, bacon wrapped this or that. You can get thick cuts of meat and butterfly them and stuff with cheese and other things. And now I'm hungry....
