Smoking Trout on a Pit Boss Pellet Grill

Smoking trout on a Pit Boss Pellet Grill is a fantastic way to infuse this delicate fish with rich, smoky flavor. With the right techniques and a few simple ingredients, you can create a mouthwatering dish that will impress your family and friends. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you smoke trout to perfection on your Pit Boss Pellet Grill.

Ingredients:

• 2-3 whole trout, gutted and cleaned
• 1/4 cup kosher salt
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 tablespoon paprika
• Wood pellets (hickory or applewood work well with trout)

Instructions:

1. Start by preparing the trout. Rinse the fish under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
2. In a small bowl, mix together the kosher salt, brown sugar, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika to create a dry rub.
3. Generously coat the trout with the dry rub, making sure to cover both the inside and outside of the fish. Place the seasoned trout on a baking sheet and let them sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the fish.
4. While the trout is resting, prepare your Pit Boss Pellet Grill for smoking. Fill the hopper with your choice of wood pellets and preheat the grill to 180-200°F (82-93°C).
5. Once the grill is preheated, place the seasoned trout directly on the grill grates. Close the lid and let the fish smoke for 1-2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
6. Check the trout periodically to ensure that the temperature remains consistent and add more wood pellets as needed to maintain a steady smoke.
7. Once the trout reaches the desired internal temperature, carefully remove them from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.

Smoking trout on a Pit Boss Pellet Grill is a rewarding experience that yields delicious results. The combination of smoky flavor and tender, flaky fish is sure to be a hit at your next gathering. So, fire up your grill and give this recipe a try – you won’t be disappointed!

Happy grilling!
