Trout Brine??

Post by sunshine » Mon Sep 01, 2008 6:20 pm

I am looking to try smoking some trout and was wondering if anyone has a good brine for trout. Do you use the same brine as you would for Salmon? Any info would be great!

I use the same brine for trout that I use for salmon. I use a more Chips in the smoker for trout.

I use the same brine. Make a slit thru the skin on the back to let the brine into the meat.:-$
I just smoked up a load of Sockeye this morning. Had to make room in the freezer for the Silvers.

I use the same brine for trout but don't soak them as long.
Look for Wannafish A Lure on FaceBook
He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

I butterfly my trout before smoking them.Then I use almost the same brine for salmon but a lil less sodium.Trout are usually not as fat as salmon so i feel less salt is better.As long as the fish floats in a salt brine its ok.
When youre up to your rear end in alligators,its hard to remember that the initial plan was to drain the swamp.
