A classic mayo made with a base of non-toxic oil – duck fat!
I’m not sure if it’s just my palette and the fact that I haven’t had “real” (SAD) mayo for many moons, but I was so satisfied with the way this came out.
For you carnivore studs, there is a carnivore variation of this mayo (up at the top). I’m not sure how tasty it would be (probably a bit on the bland side without the lemon, Dijon, and ACV), but it will definitely work.

How to make Carnivore Mayo Recipe
Mix all of the ingredients except for the duck fat in a blender until nice and smooth.
Keep the blender running on medium speed, and add the duck fat VERY slowly – like at a drip speed. It should take about 4 minutes to add all of the duck fat.
After all of the duck fat is added, blend a little longer (about 30 seconds – 1 minute) until the mixture reaches the consistency of mayo.
Gobble up and enjoy. Add it to your steaks, make my Cobb ‘Salad’ with Duck Fat Ranch Dressing, or pair it with whatever!
Store in the fridge in an air-tight container or in a condiment squeeze bottle, if you prefer.
Tips to make the best Carnivore Mayo Recipe
- When you add the duck fat to the base mixture, make sure you add it VERY slowly. I know you’re probably itching to eat this fatty goodness, but don’t rush this part!
- If storing in a condiment squeeze bottle, the mayo may firm up a bit after sitting in the fridge. Just squeeze the bottle a few times to massage it and it will end up squeezing out.
