FAQ

What temperature do you cook fish on a pellet grill?

If you want to smoke your fish, then smoking rules apply – set the temperature low, at about 225F, and let your fish cook for 1-3 hours until it reaches the desired texture. Set your pellet grill to a temperature of 350F and wait for it to reach temperature before you add your fish.

What temperature should my Traeger be on fish?

The fillet should be placed on the grill after marinating or brushing with oil, and should be turned after 6 to 8 minutes. Cooking should continue until the internal temperature of the fish reaches 145 degrees, flipping as necessary to prevent either side from burning.

What is the best temperature to grill fish?

Now that your grill has been preheated, you’re almost ready to start grilling your fish. Regardless of whether the fish has skin on or off, the temperature should be at a medium to high heat, depending on the recipe, around 400-450 degrees Fahrenheit.

How do you smoke fish on a Traeger?

Enjoy the salmon warm or chilled by placing it skin-side down directly on the grill grates, covering the grill, and smoking it for 3–4 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 140°F.
