If youโre like most people, the first place your mind goes when itโs time to dream up Fatherโs 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. Hereโs an idea: How about something that actually gets cooked on the grill? Like, for instance, a box of wild, sustainably-sourced, sockeye salmon from Alaskaโs pristine Bristol Bay? A few weeks ago, an Alaskan fisherman named Matt emailed me about his new company,ย Wild Alaska Directย which delivers boneless meal-size portions of premium sockeye anywhere in the US with free shipping. (If that didnโt sell me, his P.S. about being a gin-and-tonic soulmate certainly did.) Anyway, Matt was nice enough to offer an exclusive Fatherโs Day giveaway contest for DALS readers: A 5-pound box of fillet portions, delivered right to one lucky winnerโs door. Thatโs 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

1 tablespoon chives

Iโm 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. Itโs hard to find wild caught salmon where I live.
Love salmon but have a hard time finding it wild and freshโฆ would love to try this! And what a great Fatherโs Day treat- my father in law may even like me if I serve this! ๐
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!
