Easy Cedar Plank Lake Trout Recipe

Cedar Plank Lake Trout

This is an amazingly sweet and smoky-tasting meal.

Cedar planks give this meal a delicious light smokey flavor that is not overwhelming.

Combine that with the sweet seasoning honey and lemon slices and you have a meal that looks beautiful, smells pleasant, and is absolutely savory.

This cedar plank trout recipe will work on a charcoal or gas grill and I have used both successfully.

(enough for 2 Lbs)

TIME TO PREP PLANKS & SPICES:

PREPARE THE PLANKS :

Cut the 6 lemons into about ¼ inch slices.
Arrange cut lemons onto presoaked cedar planks. 15″ Planks can fit two rows of slice lemons.
Place the salmon horizontally onto lemons. If some of the salmon is hanging off the sides, it is ok but try to keep most of it on the lemons.
Cover Lake Trout with Smokey Sweet Seasoning
Drizzle honey over the top of each piece.

TIME TO GRILL :

Grill with a temperature of 400-500 degrees F for 15-20 min depending on your own tastes.
Once cooked bring in on the planks and let the aroma call everyone to the table.

SERVE :

The skin comes off easily with a sharp spatula. I prefer to serve it without the skin on.
Plates well with greens or rice.
Kale Citrus Fruit Salad, Cumin Rice, and more…
