  • The best smoked trout: Super easy and delicious recipe. JD Richey from @fishwithjd gives you step-by-step instructions on how to smoke trout that comes out AMAZING!
    He's using a Camp Chef Woodwind pellet grill (link to smoker: amzn.to/2MbOHTZ) but this recipe works great on any smoker from an electric Little Chief to a converted freezer.

    Use to smoke all kinds of ocean fish. Cut into 3/4-1" thick slices, brine with water, salt and other seasonings overnight. Rinse and pat dry then put the on wire racks with a fan blowing on the fish until it forms the dryness called the "pelicle". Would have 6-8 charcoal bouquets in the bottom and add the locally available mesquite wood. Keep the trays high, door cracked open to maintain a internal temp of 150-160 turning fish every 30 minutes for 4 hours. Can't wait to try smoking all the bass fillets I have from this season.

    When the brine is in action and the juices are flowing, open it up and put in one tablespoon of light soy, keep flipping. Goes very well with the brown sugar. Also scale your fish, no need to wash and no scale contamination. Your fish turned out a lovely colour, something with those colours never tastes bad.

    im assuming that you wont read this in time, but maybe your comment could help me next time. I'm brining whole trout right now and actually vacuum packed it to speed up the brining process. i'd like to eat within the next 3 hours, but am wondering if i truly HAVE to keep it out until dry and tacky? also: i do wash off the brine, right? and then pat the fish dry?

    • @fishwithjd
      @fishwithjd  3 роки тому

      Well if you are planning on eating them in the next few hours, I assume your are grilling them with some smoke...more like a dinner course rather than a full smoke?? If so you can just rise the brine and pat em dry.

    • @michaelbeckman1794
      @michaelbeckman1794 2 роки тому

      The drying process that forms the pellicle acts as a skin/barrier that helps to keep the moisture locked into the fish. Try a few pieces both ways to see and taste the difference between the two processes.

    Hi there, thanks for your video. I tried using a dry brine mix using coarse sea salt and brown sugar. Left overnight in the fridge. I rinsed the fillets in cold water and dried prior to smoking. However, when cooked, the trout was way too salty. Do you think it was just a case of using too much salt in the mix?

    • @geebee3d
      @geebee3d 3 роки тому +1

      gradun123 ... either too much salt in the mix or brined for too long. For a brine that is 1/2 cup kosher salt and 2 cups brown sugar, 6 hours is about the right amount of time. For a mix that is 1:1 salt:sugar I let it brine no more than 2 hours.
      It takes some experimenting, but you’ll soon find a recipe and technique that work.
      I suggest only smoking 1/4 to 1/2 of a fish during that time. I would rather waste a bit of chips, salt, sugar, and time, than a whole beautiful trout or salmon on a failed recipe.
