–Haddock, a popular whitefish, reaching sizes up to 1.1 m (3 ft 7 in), is fished for year-round which makes it an excellent choice for a consistent menu. Fresh haddock has a clean, white flesh and is known for its flaky, clean texture. It can be cooked a number of ways, including baked, broiled, smoked, and poached. Freshness of a haddock fillet can be determined by how well it holds together, as a fresh one will be firm. If it’s not already on your menu, call today and add it.

Murder Point Oysters are out of Porterville Bay in Alabama near what was once called Myrtle Point. Legend has it that a dispute over an oyster lease in the area lead to a fatal fight. In 1927, locals renamed the area Murder Point and the rest is history. Murder Point oysters are the product of an off-bottom, intensive aquaculture. Australian Longline cages are used to grow and nurture Murder Point oysters throughout the growing season. This off-bottom method allows the oysters to move up and down in the water column, allowing them to be flavored by different pressures, temperatures, and food sources.
