Item Description

Custom Florida Seafood Package Retail value at least $200 (includes specialty packaging and overnight shipping) Delivered to your door fresh from the Gulf coast of Florida (or pick it up in person if you want to eat crab claws straight out of the boiler! BYOButter) Contact Silas's Grandpa John Cox (727)639-6346 at Cox Seafood in Tarpon Springs, FL to find out what's fresh off the boat or what's new in the freezer. Primarily a wholesale distributor and processor, the water front business also has limited retail mail order. The seasonal stock is constantly changing so there's no website or printed listing, you just have to call and chat. Let them know when your party is happening or what you want to eat for dinner to plan your order. Includes hand packing in dry ice and overnight shipping on your specified date. Wondering how to store or cook your prize? Call up John again and talk recipes. What you might ask for in your package: Stone crab claws, season ends May 15th! (limited frozen stock post-season) Or pre-order for next season's start date October 15th! Always cooked the day they are caught and shipped to you frozen. Various sizes, always jaw-dropping delicious. A truly sustainable fishery; crabs re-grow their claws! Wild caught Gulf shrimp (Key West Pinks, Texas Browns, Whites, Rock Shrimp and others) are available nearly year round. Primarily JUMBO and COLOSSAL sizes. Each shrimp is frozen in a sulfite-free process to ensure perfect quality and easy portioning of the standard 5 pound bag. These are the shrimp sold in Whole Foods Markets. Fresh fish, primarily snapper and grouper, are occasionally available; and if you ask, John will hand fillet it for you. Fish are wild caught by wild fisherman (mostly Silas's relatives) on vertical lines (aka fishing poles) under carefully regulated permits. Unlike longline fishing which produces wasteful and environmentally damaging by-catch, your fish will be caught in a fair match up between fisherman and fish.
