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
salt and pepper
dash of hot sauce
Yum! And what fun that it is delivered right to you! 🙂
Yum! For my family, this would be two dinners for six.
My dad is no longer here but I would love this for my husband!
Ooooh, what a great idea for Father’s Day (that happens to reward me just as much as my hubby…my kind of gift!)!!
Such a great giveaway, Jenny! Fingers crossed.
Pick me!
Winning this giveaway would be awesome! Thanks for the chance.
This sounds so amazing! Every time I see salmon, I instantly think of my dad. He’s taught the little ones from his second marriage to love it, too.This would be such a perfect way to celebrate and honor him this year!
I love salmon and I love your website. What a great gift idea. Lately I’ve been grilling salmon and rice in my rice maker and wrapping bites of salmon and rice in toasted seaweed. Yum.
Big salmon fans here…sounds like the perfect gift! Will have to def check em out.
Sustainably sourced salmon in convenient packages? What an awesome service!
Yum!
This sounds spectacular. Happy Father’s Day indeed!
Our family is going to Alaska in 1 week! Wahoo! Would love to get a box of salmon!
We love salmon! Their salmon looks fantastic!
Looks delicious- thank you!
Looks great!
This looks like a great Father’s Day idea! (or any dinner for my 13 year-old…she loves salmon) Thanks!
This would be a great surprise for my husband and my 13 year-old. Thanks for the idea.
Mail order fish! How cool! I am a little worried about anything frozen being delivered here to the sweltering south, but I’m willing to give it a try.
Salmon is my husband’s favorite fish!
love, love, love salmon 🙂
Yumm! But not for my husband for father’s day – more a gift for me and the kids 🙂
Yum! The salmon looks delicious, and I can’t wait to make the sauce!
Ooh! Sounds great. My husband and I loved all the fresh pacific salmon we ate on our honeymoon last year in the San Juan Islands, WA. This would take us right back there 🙂
