Wood-Fired Trout Recipe: Founder’s Feast Montana Catch
Howdy, campers! Buck “The Campfire King” McCoy here, and today I’m sharin’ a recipe that’s close to my heart: Wood-Fired Trout Recipe, seasoned with Founder’s Feast. Bein’ from Montana, trout is a staple, and there’s no better way to cook it than over an open flame. Let’s make some magic happen!
Ingredients for Your Wood-Fired Trout Recipe
- 4 fresh trout fillets
- 2 tablespoons Founder’s Feast seasoning
- 1 lemon, sliced
- 2 tablespoons fresh chopped dill or parsley
- 2 tablespoons butter, cubed
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Aluminum foil or grill basket
How to Make Wood-Fired Trout
- First, clean and pat dry the trout fillets.
- Next, season both sides with Founder’s Feast seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Then, place the trout on a large piece of foil. Top with lemon slices, fresh herbs, and dots of butter.
- After that, fold the foil into a packet, sealing it tightly.
- Finally, place the packet on the grill grate over the campfire or wood-fired grill. Cook for 10-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Campfire Fish Cooking Tips
Use a grill basket or foil packet to prevent the fish from falling apart. Soak the wood chips in water for 30 minutes before using them in the fire for more smoke. If you prefer, you can cook the trout directly on the grill grate, but be careful as it may stick.
Serving Suggestions
Serve with grilled vegetables or a side of cornbread for a rustic meal. Pair with a cold beer or lemonade for that true campfire vibe.
