ADVICE
Use skin-on trout fillets when possible to retain moisture and prevent it from sticking to the grill grates.

Garnish your smoked trout fillets with a sprig of dill or other fresh herbs and a lemon wedge. A squeeze of lemon juice goes a long way to boost your trout’s flavor. Serve warm over a kale salad, with a side of rice, or your favourite side!
Enjoy!
