Thursday was a good day. Seventy-odd Maine food producers in one room, and we spent it handing smoked po***ck to people who had never tried it. Watching someone’s face change after one cracker does not get old.

No Golden Fork for us this time, but we had a great time sharing what we do and being surrounded by so many talented Maine food businesses. Congratulations to this year’s winners!!

Thanks to the Maine Center for Entrepreneurs for putting it on, and to everyone who stopped by the table.

Oysters are better now than they were in July, and that isn’t nostalgia talking. They spawn through the warm months and put everything into that. Once the water cools they stop, firm up, and go sweet and briny again.

So this is the stretch worth paying attention to. Maine oysters on ice, a few different kinds, and we’ll shuck them for you if you’d rather not wrestle with them yourself.

October is National Seafood Month, so here’s a word for the fish that usually gets passed over.

Po***ck is caught right here in the Gulf of Maine. There’s plenty of it, the boats bring it in all season, and most people still walk right by it on the way to the haddock. We smoke it and turn it into a dip, and that tends to change minds pretty fast.

Part of every tub goes to the Maine Coast Fishermen's Association. They’ve been working for years to get more overlooked Maine fish onto plates.

Find it at Pine Tree Seafood & Produce and shops and restaurants around the state.

Our smoked salmon has been getting out of the smokehouse.

Luke’s Lobster is using our smoked salmon on their Smoked Salmon BLT at the Portland Pier - and we have to say, they put it to pretty good use.

If you’re squeezing in a few more meals on the deck this fall, this isn’t a bad way to do it.

September is when the fish get good.
North Atlantic fish are at their healthiest right after a summer of feeding in the Gulf of Maine. It's also when maple starts making sense again - a little more complexity than brown sugar, and it holds up to smoke.

That's the whole idea behind our Maple Smoked Peppered Bluefish. Wild-caught bluefish, local oakwood smoke, maple syrup and cracked black pepper. Robust enough to stand up to a real appetite.

Cold out of the fridge, on a slice of good bread. That's the whole recipe.

$15.99. Grab one at Pine Tree Seafood or wherever you find us.

Forget to thaw the pâté? We’ve all been there.

Put the sealed package in a bowl of cool water and give it about 20 minutes. That’s it.

Pâté problem solved.

Lobsters smell through their feet. They chew with their stomachs. And apparently, they p*e out their face. 🦞😳

Yep. Those are just three of the surprising facts Jim Hartley of Pine Tree Seafood & Produce discovered while exploring The Secret Life of Lobsters—and they're only the beginning.

After 15 years of selling lobsters, Jim expected the book to offer a few interesting tidbits. Instead, he came away with a whole new appreciation for the strange and fascinating animal he works with every day.

He shares five facts that still surprise customers at the counter, including why lobsters shed their entire shells, how their unusual eyes have inspired telescope engineers, why their claws aren't identical, and how baby lobsters can actually rocket through the water.

But Jim says the biggest lesson wasn't really about lobsters. It's about what happens when the hands-on knowledge of fishermen and the data gathered by scientists are brought together.

And now you have to wonder: What else don't we know about the lobster sitting on our dinner plate? 👀
