Whole Smoked EelAll of the eel for our smoked program come from domestic wild fisheries along the east coast and throughout the Chesapeake basin and all are trap caught. While there are seasonal peaks and lulls, we are able to source domestic eel year round, always domestic. The eel are delivered by our harvesters directly to the smoker, where they are then bled, gutted, and de slimed with salt. From there they are washed, then briefly brined in our proprietary salt
