Directions:
Step 1
Preheat your oven* to 350º Fahrenheit.
*If using a grill, move the coals to one side and cover the grill with a lid. If using a campfire, place the foil packet directly on a bed of coals. (Note: double wrap the foil to avoid ripping.) Cooking times may vary; reach an internal temperature of 145º Fahrenheit.
Step 2
Spread the trout on the foil wrap. Sprinkle the inside of the trout with salt and pepper, add lemon slices and butter, and fold the trout closed.
Step 3
Top the folded trout with your favorite vegetables. Pour the Summerfest atop the medley, filling a glass with the remaining beer to enjoy on the side.
Step 4
Enclose the trout and fixings in the foil wrap, being sure to crimp the foil well to ensure a good seal. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 10–15 minutes.
Step 5
Remove and carefully cut open the foil wrap to release the glorious, steamy aroma and dive in.
