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!)

I love Salmon, Iโve been eating at least 5 portions every week, so i would love to try this out. I also recently found out Iโm pregnant and wild salmon is one of the fish that I can eat without having to worry!
What an awesome giveaway! My dad would LOVE this!!
What a wonderful way to get fresh delicious salmon. Thanks!

My favorite food to grill! Salmon is so versatile.
Hey Matt,
Do you also ship Chinook? Wild, of course. Baked with a little butter is just fine.
Looks amazing!
Looks delicious! Would love to give them a try
curious how the salmon is shipped? I love Alaskan salmon but often it comes with so much unrecyclable materials that it makes me enjoy the salmon a little less.
Entering for myself! Hubby isnโt a huge salmon fan but I am and he eats it because he loves me.
Yum!! I will be making this this weekend!
My girls live salmon.
That is one delicious looking salmon meal!
We need to eat more salmon. That is one delicious looking meal!
