Our fresh halibut fillets are wrapped in a plastic pouch, then encased in bubble wrap to ensure high quality and freshness during shipment. Shipments include a combination of dry ice and gel packs to create just the right holding temperature for overnight "fresh" delivery.

Fresh halibut fillets arrive fresh, not frozen, and are ready to be cooked & prepared upon delivery. Fresh halibut fillet portions can be stored in your refrigerator and should be consumed within 2 to 3 days. Prior to cooking, store your fresh halibut in a shallow pan or tray on the bottom shelf of your refrigerator (where the temperature is coldest).

Availability (Frozen):

Alaska halibut is a large, almost annual fishery, making it available all year round. Fresh-frozen processing and glazing allows halibut to be kept frozen for long periods of time with insured quality and means of distribution. Alaskan fishermen catch halibut sustainably, using long-lining fishing methods, which minimizes by-catch, and is regulated under strict harvest limits & regulations.
