Tips & Warnings

• If your trout is frozen, always thaw before cooking. Placing frozen trout on a hot grill may break the skin and result in loss of flavor.
• Some cooks recommend leaving the head on while cooking BUT I just don't like my meal staring at me while it is cooking.
• Do not overcook. Trout is very delicate and should be served moist. Also, bones are difficult to remove if the meat is overcooked and dry.
