Questions
Questions about our black cod
How is it different from farmed or grocery fish?
Our wild black cod hunts herring, pollock and squid. Farm-raised fish are raised in controlled environments, usually fed dried pellets, can be treated with antibiotics and must be labelled farm-raised at the grocery. Ours isn't part of the cod family and is often called butterfish (NOAA). A raw 6oz portion has about 26 g fat to 1 g for Atlantic cod (USDA FoodData Central), so it cooks up buttery.
Will it arrive frozen?
Yes, on purpose. Every fillet is portioned right off the dock, vacuum-sealed, then flash-frozen to −40°F within hours of the catch, and it is never thawed and refrozen. It ships frozen with dry ice every Tuesday morning and arrives in 1–2 days. If the box turns up soft, warm or split, tell us and we replace the order. You do not send anything back.
Is this a subscription?
No. This page sells a one-time purchase: no subscription, no auto-ship. If you'd like regular deliveries, black cod Subscribe & Save takes 8% off.
More fish than we can eat?
Each 6oz portion is vacuum-sealed, so you thaw only what you're cooking tonight. The rest keeps 1 year sealed in the freezer. To thaw, move a portion to the fridge overnight, or put it in a bowl of cold water for about 30 minutes.
Is it really wild Alaskan black cod?
Yes. Kyle and his crew catch it in Alaskan waters on our own boats. It is never farmed and never imported, and it is 100% processed and packaged in the USA.
Can I cook it as well as a restaurant does?
Here's how black cod buyers put it: "I had no luck grilling fish until I tried this amazing black cod - delicious, tender, and juicy every time!" Another wrote, "We cooked it Nobu Miso Cod style and it was fantastic." Thaw a portion, then sear, broil or glaze it.
