Brown Sugar-Cured Hot Smoked Trout
2021-04-05
[Garden & Gun] "Once a year growing up, my family would decamp to Lake Taupo [in New Zealand] for trout season. This involved some atrociously bad fly fishing, sitting in rocky thermal heated streams and eventually taking a charter on the lake to actually catch some fish. As a fourteen-year-old interested in cooking, I smoked out many hotel rooms and set off countless fire alarms trying to smoke fish for my family. This is the method I use now, at work and at home. Once you get a feel for cooking the fish, it becomes a truly enjoyable thing to make." —Analiese Gregory in her cookbook, How Wild Things Are. Read our interview with Gregory about her love of the outdoors and fishing here.

#5  I believe Brown Trout is a reference to a um... turd.

#4  Never caught a trout, brown or otherwise (saltwater speckled trout excluded) or smoked a fish of any kind - what is the problem with smoking brown trout?

#3  Dunno about hot smoking trout. Salmon...absolutely. We call it "smoasted" out here in the West Coast. Trout? Too delicate. Hell I do a super low temp smoke on trout going on close to 10 hrs. If I want fish jerky, I'll make it but I don't like fish jerky so there ya go.

#1  Trout are fun to catch. The bones make the eating much less fun...
