Wild Caught · Gulf Coast USA · Frozen Fresh
$17.50 / per package (5-7oz)
Product Details
Kitty Mitchell grouper. What our captains call speckled hind — a deep-water reef species caught on hard bottom and rocky ledge structure in federally managed Gulf waters. Strict bag limits keep it rare enough that most markets never see it; our captains only bring it in when it turns up on the line. Processed, vacuum sealed, and frozen to -5°F — all within 48 hours of the fish hitting the dock. Frozen Fresh.
Flavor & Texture
Firm, dense white flesh with a mild, sweet flavor — close in character to red grouper but with the cleaner edge deep-water fish tend to have. Holds up well across preparations, outstanding kept simple.
Health Benefits
Kitty Mitchell grouper is a lean, complete protein — approximately 21g protein per 3 oz serving. Rich in omega-3 fatty acids, potassium, selenium, and B vitamins. Low in fat and calories, making it an excellent daily protein source.
What You Receive
Wild caught speckled hind grouper, vacuum sealed in individual fillets and sourced from federally managed U.S. Gulf waters under strict bag limits. Packages run 5–7 oz, targeted at 6 oz — a full adult serving, bigger than the FDA's recommended 4oz portion. Fillets come skin off.
Common Questions
How big are the portions?
Portions average between 5 and 7 oz. We aim for 6 oz every time, but because we hand-cut and portion every fish, hitting it exactly isn't always possible — and we never go below 5 oz.
The FDA's recommended serving size for fish is 4 oz. We felt that was a little small for a full meal, so we sized ours up by 50%. The result is a balanced, individually portioned meal.
How long can I keep it in my freezer?
For the best quality, we suggest eating within 6 months of purchase. That said, our fish holds excellent quality out to 12 months.
After 12 months it's still safe to eat, but the quality starts to degrade.
Is there a discount for buying in bulk?
Yes. One of the best parts of buying frozen is that it lets you stock your freezer.
Orders over $200 — use code GM200 for 10% off your entire order. Orders over $400 — use code GM400 for 15% off your entire order.
Are there bones in my fillet?
Every fish is hand-cut and portioned, and we remove the bones — pin bones included — as we go. Each fillet is inspected twice before it's packed.
Even so, a small bone slips through now and then. It happens with hand-cut wild fish, so give each fillet a quick check before cooking.
Why Frozen Is Actually Fresher
Frozen Within 48 Hours
Most grocery store fish is 7–10 days old before it hits the counter. Ours is processed and frozen within 48 hours of the fish hitting the dock.
Locks In Nutrition
Flash freezing preserves the omega-3s, protein, and flavor that degrade in fresh fish over time.
Better Than “Fresh”
In seafood, “fresh” often means never frozen but days old. Frozen right means genuinely fresh.
