Easy Barbecue Trout Recipes

Barbecue trout recipes are easy provided you have one essential ingredient – freshness. Fresh BBQ fish and fresh accompaniments make all the difference and here’s a couple of great examples.

As you can see in this picture, you don't need to have state of the art equipment to grill fish. The cooking time is so short that fish is ideal for cooking in this way.

I took this photo whilst on holiday in France. The group of people that were next to us on the camp ground were leaving the next day and didn't wan't to buy a large bag of charcoal so they just bought one of those small disposable charcoal barbecue grill trays for their final cook out.

(It just goes to show that still many think of BBQ grilling as cooking only for vacations whereas us seasoned all year round grillers take charcoal with us wherever we go!).

BBQ trout is so easy and so tasty, all you need is a good fresh flavored rub / stuffing or a light sauce to drizzle over. I love a little spice in my barbecues and so I’m going to start with one of my favorite barbecue trout recipes. Surprise surprise it’s called

Grilled Spicy Trout!

Ingredients:-

First of all there’s the spice mix:-

• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon garam masala
• 1 teaspoon cooking oil
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• a pinch of salt

Method:-

Mix it all up.

Take your trout (washed and gutted) and make some some oblique slashes down each side of the trout, this helps the spice mix penetrate deep down into the flesh of the fish.

Now simply rub the spice mix all over, in the cavity and into the slashes. Refrigerate for an hour while the spices do their work and it’s time to light the barbecue.

TIP - oil the grill plate and the fish basket and this will stop the fish from sticking and breaking up.

Grill the trout on medium coals for about five to ten minutes on each side depending on the size of the fish.

TIP - You can tell when trout is cooked because the eyes turn a milky white color.

…………..and here’s another spicy option:-

Grilled Trout with Thai Sweet Sauce

This has got to be the easiest! Check out my Thai Sweet Sauce recipe, grill your fish for 10 minutes each side like in the first recipe, sprinkle with salt and drizzle the sauce over at the last minute. Serve with fresh salad and you've got a fantastically tasty healthy light lunch. Mmm!

If spice isn't your thing then I've got another couple of grilled bbq trout recipes right here.
