I've never done it, but if you are using a camp stove, try a diffuser. I also replaced my aluminuim camp fry pan with a coated fry pan from target. i removed the handle. Wish I had done it 20 years ago. It's still not cast iron, but the extra thickness distributes the heat better and prevents scorching.

Instead of aluminum I like "disk bottomed" fry pans, like this


Stainless with a multi ply heavy bottom for even heat. Buy used, modify as needed.

Has anyone had luck blackening fish on aluminum pans? My first effort last week in the BW didn't workout so well. I never have issues at home with cast iron.
