Skye Ocean Trout…
If you are looking for a rich and buttery fish, Skye Trout is a phenominal resource. With sustainability at the forefront, the quality is that of wild species. Ocean Trout has a subtle mild flavor which makes it an incredible blank canvas for culinary creation. Loved by chefs for not only its superior flavor & texture when cooked, but also its versatility for different dishes, such as sashimi/crudo raw applications and cold & hot smoked.
Antibiotic Free, Skye Ocean Trout begins its life cycle on land in “zero waste” closed containment recirculating tanks. Local fresh water is sourced and naturally “ozone” sanitized prior to use to ensure upmost quality to ensure top quality & health of the fish. Once the fresh water Trout reach maturity, they are then introduced into the pristine salt water of the Isle of Skye in Scotland, thus making them a true ocean tTrout.

We have a great selection of oysters this week. Make sure you are on our East Coast oyster list that we send out every week. We have access to several varieties each week. Sassy Malpeques are a great oyster from PEI. They are farmed by hand to ensure consistent meat yield and have a distinct sweet brine balanced against a salty snap. Call you sales rep to pre-order today!
The Louisiana Gulf is still experiencing issues with lack of oysters due to fresh water runoff. Gold Band oysters are available but very limited. Pink Bands are another option for a post-harvest treated oyster. Fresh shucked oyster gallons will be limited, as the yield of the meat is not good right now. Frozen Pillow packs are a good option.
The farm producing the Extra Jumbo Redfish (3lb and up) have been coming up short. The fish are coming in around 3 to 3.5 lbs. We are seeing some shortages on the larger sizes. The smaller size is due to warm weather, and fish not eating as much due to the summer heat. Jumbo Redfish (2.5-3 lb.) availability is available right now, and is an option. Striped Bass availability is somewhat limited due to sizing as well. Please call your sales rep for pricing and availability.
