- 3 Fresh Rainbow Trout gutted
- 2 Large Lemons thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp Minced Garlic per fish
- Handful of Fresh Parsley
- Olive Oil
- Salt & Pepper
Light the Cowboy Hardwood Lump Charcoal in a charcoal chimney or mound inside your grill and let burn for 10-15 minutes. (Optional) Add 3-4 pieces of apple wood to the top of the charcoal for added flavor!
Make sure to grease grill grate thoroughly in order to prevent fish from sticking!
De-thaw Rainbow Trout until at room temperature. Rub olive oil all over skin and inside of trout to prevent from sticking to grill. Stuff minced garlic, salt & pepper inside fish. Make sure to spread evenly throughout fish. Place lemon slices and parsley inside fish.
Once charcoal is hot (around 325-350F), place trout on grill to cook. Fish will cook 7-8 minutes per side or until skin lifts easily from grill grate. Make sure to only flip once in order to keep skin intact.
Pull fish off fire & enjoy!
