Steps

  • Step 1

    Brine the trout: In a large container, combine the water, brown sugar, salt, pepper, and soy sauce and stir until the salt and sugar have dissolved. Place the trout fillets in the brine, making sure they are submerged, then transfer to the refrigerator for 60 minutes.

    • 1 Gallon water

    • 1/4 Cup kosher salt

    • 1/2 Cup brown sugar

    • 1 Tablespoon freshly ground black pepper

  • Step 3

    Remove the fish from the brine and pat dry. Place the fish directly on grill grates, skin-side down. Close the lid and smoke until the fish is opaque and starts to flake, 1 1/2 to 2 hours, depending on the thickness of the fish. Begin checking after 90 minutes.
