Here's an entry I did for a throwdown contest on a grilling forum I visit. Came out good. I didn't win but I did get to eat this so that's kind of a win.

Here the rest of the entries if you want to view them.

Started the sauce on the keg. Removed from the heat and added butter.



Rainbow trout stuffed with some treats



Headshot



Packed with a box of salt mixed with egg whites. Gets hard and makes a little oven to cook the fish in.



Not that great of a keg shot but its all I had



After breaking salt open. Perfectly cooked and very moist. Skins keeps it from getting salty.



Skin removed



Plated



I almost used this pic

I was pretty happy with the way it came out.

Looks lovely !! Is Rainbow trout always that colour?, I ask because the farmed trout we get here is distinctly pink.

Looks delicious! I wish I was there.

If you mean the flesh color yes. If you mean the skin Im not sure. Not a big fisherman.

You mean pink like salmon?

These are farm raised.

Thanks for the comments guys.

Yes, I meant the flesh. I guess they must put carotene in the fish food here.

see here for example: http://www.freshfishdaily.co.uk/Fish/Trout-Fillets/

I, too, think that this is the best way to cook salmonids. Covering the fish in a thin layer of salt and wrap it in alu foil saves me a lot of salt. Caddis flies are about to hatch on the Yellowstone ... yum!
