We’ve Got Crabs!

This is normally nothing to boast about, but the NORTON SOUND KING CRAB definitely is! We have fresh, never frozen, clusters coming in Friday July 14th. We serve the crab without melted butter because they are so sweet and flavorful you don’t need it. You can really tell the difference between fresh and frozen once you try these. If after you try them, you would like some melted butter, we will be happy to get some for you.

Also this week we have WILD COOK INLET KING SALMON coming in. These are coming from Alaska and are shipped FedEx overnight. Alaska has some of the cleanest waters in the world and it really shows when eating the KING SALMON. It’s such a rich and flavorful fish and with all the added health benefits of omega 3 and more, it is the perfect fish.

The “SUMMER FLOUNDER” is back as well. If you’re looking for a light flakey fish with nice flavor, this is your fish. 

And back once again are my favorites, the NANTUCKET SEA SCALLOPS. You have to taste these sweet scallops to truly appreciate what we do. Our scallops come from a day boat that goes out for 3-6 hours and comes back in to process and ship out there catch. We receive our scallops within 36 hours of being caught, and keep them iced down maintaining 32-34 degrees to keep them fresh and sweet. If you have to put bacon and fruit sauce on scallops to make them taste good, then you are probably eating old or “soaked” scallops. We will NEVER serve these!

Thanks to everyone!

Stuffed Poblano

I have a lot of people ask why we don’t do the STUFFED POBLANO at CANYON GRILL anymore. Well I just don’t think it can compete with the one the Boathouse does. It is stuffed with rotisserie chicken, queso and feta cheese and is served with avocado, fresh chips and tomatillo salsa. It is a great appetizer, and has become one of my favorites and there’s enough for two people to share.  Plus it goes great with my ice cold glass of Newcastle from the tap!

Grilled Oysters

I just had to write about these babies. If you haven’t tried these GRILLED OYSTERS you are missing out! Fire roasted with garlic butter they are cooked perfectly, with a light smoky flavor. I had them Monday and was supposed to share them with my girlfriend, but that didn’t work out too well for her.
