Our random-weight offering contains 5 lbs of skin-on portions of varying sizes, with approximately 14 individually packaged portions per box.
Note: Your package may include smaller tail sections – which cook quickly and are ideal for smaller appetites.

The only difference is that we leave on the skin and its fatty under-layer, which means that you get more flavor and omega-3s while enjoying substantial savings.

The Skin-On/Boneless Sockeye portions in our 5 lb Bulk Pack average 5.8 ounces each, and you get 14 individually vacuum-sealed portions on average. (The guaranteed minimum total weight is 5 lbs.)

*By eliminating the skin-removal step during processing, and by offering these premium quality portions in a bulk pack, we can offer our unequalled Sockeye at big savings:

Compared with our Skinless/Boneless 12-pack, you save $2.88 per pound.
Compared with our Skinless/Boneless 6-pack you save $10.66 per pound.

Superior wild Alaskan Sockeye
Vital Choice wild Sockeye Salmon is the very best you can buy.
Compare our Sockeye to any supermarket Salmon ... you'll see and taste a big difference!

Wild Alaskan Sockeye (Red) Salmon
offers abundant omega-3s
and unrivaled levels of vitamin D.

Thanks to contacts developed during more than 20 years fishing Alaskan waters, Vital Choice Sockeye comes from small-scale, “boutique” Alaskan fisheries. And our premium-grade Sockeye is cleaned and flash-frozen within hours of harvest to preserve its rare, fresh-caught quality perfectly.

In contrast, most Sockeye on the market comes from high-volume fisheries, where huge numbers pile up in crowded holds ... a reality that impacts quality. Compared with Vital Choice Sockeye, these fish cannot be handled as carefully nor cleaned and frozen nearly as rapidly.

Pure and wholesome
Wild Alaskan Salmon is among the purest of all ocean fish, which is why the EPA, FDA, Alaska Division of Public Health and consumer organizations recommend it without reservation. To learn more about this, visit our Purity Page.

Sockeye vs. King and Silver Salmon
Wild Alaskan Sockeye Salmon is considerably richer than our Silver (Coho) Salmon, and a bit leaner than our King (Chinook) Salmon, with a firmer texture than either.

Sockeye Nutrition
In addition to ample protein, Sockeye provides three beneficial natural food factors in abundance: omega-3s, vitamin D and astaxanthin.

These are the amounts in each 6 oz portion, which will vary annually and by harvest location (see tab below for full Nutrition Info):

Omega-3s – About 2,000 mg of EPA+DHA, or four to seven times more than standard fish oil capsules.
Vitamin D – About 1,170 IU, or nearly triple the US RDA of 400 IU. (Most experts now advise adults to consume 1,000-2,000 IU every day.) Ounce for ounce, Sockeye Salmon provides much more vitamin D – in the optimal D3 form – than any other whole or fortified food.
Astaxanthin – About 6.75 mg. This red-orange pigment is a carotene-type antioxidant that, in certain test tube experiments, measures 500 times more powerful than vitamin E ... just 3.3 mg of astaxanthin can pack the antioxidant punch of 300 to 1,600 mg of vitamin E.

Storage
Keep frozen. Thaw overnight in refrigerator, or for faster readiness, place unopened package in cold water for 30 minutes or until fish is flexible.

Serving Tips
Rinse fish quickly in cold, clean water. Cook in a medium-hot lightly oiled pan, under a broiler, or on the grill for 7-8 minutes, until only the very center is still translucent.
Remove fish from heat and let it “self-cook” another two to three minutes, until just cooked through to center before serving.

NOTE: It is perfectly safe and healthful to serve our fish raw or partly cooked, because flash-freezing has rendered it 100% sushi-safe.

Enliven your fish entree with antioxidant-rich seasonings such as Vital Choice Organic Salmon Marinade Mix or other herb-spice blends.
Add our Mix or the seasonings of your choice to a little olive oil and marinate the fish, refrigerated, for 30-60 minutes or overnight.
Or, simply mist fish lightly with olive oil or macadamia nut oil and dust with seasonings before cooking.
