Ralph brings up a good option to consider. Wood stoves. Wood --- or almost any combustible material including straw and pine cones --- can be burned in another cooker, the Sierra Stove. Really a wonderful invention, and, since it uses "external", indigenous fuel which you collect while you're camping, it should have no airline restrictions. Essentially, it's a double lined fire pot that has a battery powered fan to increase the air flow into the fire bed, thus increasing the temperature of the fire and the amount of cooking heat generated. Simple, relatively small and quite cheap. Burns driftwood, and virtually anything else. The best primer is to look at the well written and very readable "Sierra Stove Unofficial Web Site", http://yahi.csustan.edu/~gcrawfor/zip/zipstove.html. Another great option to dino fueled stoves.
