The Seafood Brand you Have to Know includes All of Your Grilling Favorites
Fresh seafood is one of life’s pleasures, and flash frozen seafood delivered quickly to your doorstep can often be almost as good. One brand that we love is Vital Choice Wild Seafood.
Their premium sustainably-caught seafood tastes so fresh and delicious that it is hard to believe it wasn’t just caught. Not only does it taste fresh, it also looks and smells fresh. As many seafood lovers know, fish that smells fishy is often not in good condition. As far as looks, Vital Choice’s Mahi Mahi and salmon both look and feel firm — neither soggy and gray nor hard and dry — and have enticing colors that are a bit surreal.
Vital Choice has a combo package called the Limited Edition GrillBox. The GrillBox includes seasonal favorites and grilling planks — everything a seafood grill master would want — including:
- Wild Alaskan Sockeye Salmon, boneless, skin-on
- Sockeye Salmon Burgers, four 5-oz patties, gluten free
- Wild Mahi Mahi, skinless, boneless
- Wild Artisan Blue Shrimp from the Gulf of California
- Alder Grilling planks
The GrillBox portion sizes are perfect for long or short term storage and use. It’s not practical to want to make a serving for 1-2 people and have to thaw out an entire fish and just use half. The Vital Choice GrillBox sizes are therefore a good fit for various meals, plus don’t dominate available freezer shelf space. Fortunately, the GrillBox does come with several pieces from which to choose when it’s time for your next recipe.
Interestingly, among our reviewers the fan favorite was the Wild Mahi Mahi (dolphinfish), while the ruby red Wild Sockeye Salmon was a very close second. Once you start cooking with the Mahi Mahi, it’s clear that the sweeter but more neutrally flavored fish is much more versatile than the salmon, whose flavor is more robust and recognizable. The Mahi Mahi can be used in pasta, soups, bouillabaisse, or even in fish and chips and grilled or fried fish sandwiches. We tried the fishery raised Wild Sockeye Salmon with various marinades, jerks, and rubs, and were never disappointed.
The one area for improvement with the GrillBox is possibly the addition of a larger package size of shrimp. The single packet included is great for 1-2 diners but not extendable to 3 or 4.
