Help with Trout

[Hunkydory]

Hi,

In a rush today - but I wanted to do Trout.

Off to the shops, two rainbows about 1 lb each, small slits down the sides, rubbed in some sea salt, into the BS with no heat.

It's smoking on alder, planning 2 hours cold then the heat up to (say 220) cook then for an hour or so.

I recon that as I was in a hurry I've broken all the rules, no brining, no waithing for the skin to dry - will it work ?  If not, how do I rescue myself ?

Thanks,

Hunkydory

There is no rules other than don't over cook it. Enjoy. I often just season the trout, rub with a bit of evoo, cold smoke it for an hour or so and finish it off on the grill. Fast food at its best :)

Next time you get some trout and have a little more time try Boutch's recipe. I like mine with a little less salt and less brining time, because my fillets were much thinner than his.

That's a great bit of advice ice... we would all do well to remember this from time to time.  :)

Looks tasty !

Shame about the weather, manxman, as I think I would be smoking otherwise !  What's it like over there ?
