A sweet and salty brine helps these trout retain their moisture in our Smoked Whole Trout recipe. Their cavities are filled with lemon slices, butter, thyme and oregano for a simple seasoning that enhances the natural flavor of the fish. Slow smoking over apple wood gives them a buttery, flaky texture with a sweet, salty and smoky taste in every bite.About the Cut: Trout is a freshwater fish, similar to salmon in appearance and flavor. They average about 20 to 30 inches long and around 8 pounds. If you don’t catch it yourself, you can buy it fresh or frozen, whole or in fillets.We made this recipe on the Rider DLX Pellet Grill, but you can make it on your smoker.
