New England was once the wealthiest region in the United States. Between 1850 and 1910 New Bedford was considered the whaling capital of the world. At this time whale oil and by products were more valuable than any other natural resource next to gold. The Seamen hunting these mammals were some of the richest men of their time building huge mansions along the coastline of New Bedford. They assembled the finest modern fishing fleets to hunt this ocean gem and nearly drove the whale to extinction. Today, New Bedford has transformed itself into a large scallop port along the Eastern Seaboard and produces the largest amount of shucked meats for our domestic consumption. In keeping with SeafoodS.com's commitment to providing complete regional solutions, our team has also layered in day-boat producers and aqua-culture artisans in Nantucket, Cape Cod, Boston, Glouster and many other local fisheries of the Northeast.

Well, the Kingklip of the Gulf of Mexico and Southern Atlantic is actually a Bearded Brotula, but that name won't sell specials. So Kingklip emerged the same way Orange Roughy replaced Slimehead. The Brotula is family of its own with a flavor and texture that is extremely similar to Grouper. Often called "Poor Man's Grouper", the Kingklip is a fish that inhabits great depths and often packs on "fat" to regulate body temperature. As we know, this is a great asset to food fish. A rich diet of crustacean, mollusks, and other invertebrates give the Kingklip a sweetness that is often lacking in species that feed primarily on other fish. Kingklip is a diverse ingredient that lends itself to a multitude of preparations. Its close textural comparison to Grouper, and even larger Snapper, allows many of the most popular applications to easily transpose onto the use of Kingklip.
