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!)

Would love to have salmon delivered to my door! I don’t cook it often enough, and my husband loves it. He’d definitely enjoy this for Father’s Day 🙂
What a perfect gift! My dad eats salmon multiple times a week, thanks for the great idea!
I am not a big fish eater myself, so this would be an extra big treat for my husband!
Sounds amazing! I’m pregnant and due any day now, anything that will facilitate my husband cooking more is a winner.
Yes!

My husbands favorite meal is salmon – this would be a great father’s day gift!!
My husband would love this! His favorite family vacation ever was a trip to Alaska. We fished for salmon from a small boat out in the ocean and sent our catch home – delicious!
Our whole family loves salmon!! We’re actually grilling some for dinner tonight! Would love to sample some of this awesome looking sockeye!!
What a great giveaway and company! I gave my dad the DALS cookbook for Christmas and was already thinking of food-related gifts for him for Fathers Day, so this is perfect!
What a great idea! yum!
Salmon and horseradish is always a fab combo….actually, horseradish with anything is pretty delicious.
What a great gift idea!
I loathe salmon – it’s one of like 3 things I absolutely cannot eat – but my pescatarian partner loves it, as does our son. This would be an amazing Father’s Day gift for him!
