If you’re like most people, the first place your mind goes when it’s time to dream up Father’s Day gifts is outside, in the general direction of the grill. And if the dad in question is like most dads, he already has his fair share of tongs, trays, tools and toys. Here’s an idea: How about something that actually gets cooked on the grill? Like, for instance, a box of wild, sustainably-sourced, sockeye salmon from Alaska’s pristine Bristol Bay? A few weeks ago, an Alaskan fisherman named Matt emailed me about his new company, Wild Alaska Direct which delivers boneless meal-size portions of premium sockeye anywhere in the US with free shipping. (If that didn’t sell me, his P.S. about being a gin-and-tonic soulmate certainly did.) Anyway, Matt was nice enough to offer an exclusive Father’s Day giveaway contest for DALS readers: A 5-pound box of fillet portions, delivered right to one lucky winner’s door. That’s six dinners for two, twelve single portions, or a dinner for you and 11 of your closest friends. How fun is that? To be eligible, all you have to do is comment below. Contest ends Sunday, June 5 at 8:00 ET. (Update: The winner has been notified. Thank you all for playing!)
Olive oil
salt and pepper
1 tablespoon chives
3 tablespoons finely chopped dill
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish

Love your books; I use them at least once a week when the will to cook flags. My freezer would be overjoyed to harbor that salmon.

We LOVE salmon…we love Alaska too!
How I dream of visiting Alaska one day! My family would love this treat. And I’ve heard that until you’ve had fresh, Alaskan salmon, you haven’t really had salmon. 🙂
Sorry for the double post! Thought 1st didn’t go thru.:/

I’m not too accomplished at prepping fish yet, so individual packages delivered to my door sound amazing!!
Our entire family loves salmon! Would love to try out a new company.
Ooh. What a great giveaway. It’s hard to find wild caught salmon where I live.
Love salmon but have a hard time finding it wild and fresh… would love to try this! And what a great Father’s Day treat- my father in law may even like me if I serve this! 😉
Oh my goodness- this salmon looks amazing! And considering my father is always sending me pictures of the fish he is grilling, this would make the perfect gift!
