Grilled Trout

Does anyone know of a good way to grill trout?

I have cooked in a tin-foil pouch before on the grill. With potatos,onions,peppers and lots of butter! tasted good!

I have even heard of people cooking trout/salmon in tin-foil bags in the dishwasher! Just run the dishwasher on a cycle and bon appitiete?? Kinda weird?

I was watching a 4-wheel drive show one time and they were catching trout in a creek at the bottom of a hill. They placed the trout in tin-foil pouches and put the pouches under the hood on there truck(near the manifold). Then drove to the top of the hill, popped open the hood and begain to eat there catch! The tin-foil cooking bag comes in handy just about anywhere.

You can brush your pre heated grill grates with oil then oil your trout and lay on the grates when they start to cook brush them with western salad dressing just like you would use BBQ sauce, they turn a nice golden crispy brown.

I've grilled trout before but I like it better when it's steamed in a foil pouch. To grill, smear oil on the flesh side of the filet and then grill that side first. It only takes a few minutes. When the meat is cooked it will be easy to lift off the grate with a spatula. If it sticks it's not done yet. Flip and grill on skin side. Grilling whole trout that isn't filleted is even easier. Just grill on each side until done. You can usually remove all the bones by carefully tugging out the spine.
