Getting paleo amounts of fat is difficult. The only way I've been able to do it is adding pastured/grass-fed butter to most of my meals, along with MCT and olive oils. I also eat lots of avocado, and usually add macadamia nuts on my once-a-week low protein day.

The web site paleo leap has some great information - try searching for PALEO NUTRITION FOR HEALTHY WEIGHT GAIN for an article on tips/tricks to add fats and still ensure a well balanced diet.
