8 oz

Fresh yellowtail flounder fillets from Red's Best Seafood are wild-caught in the North Atlantic. Yellowtail flounder is a species of flatfish known for its thin profile and delicate, flaky texture. Red's Best Seafood partners with a network of small-boat fishermen across New England to source this catch. Yellowtail flounder has a mild profile that adapts well to various cooking methods. Because the fillets are thin, they cook quickly and require minimal handling. This fresh seafood is suitable for pan-frying, baking, or broiling. A common preparation involves dredging the flounder in seasoned flour or breadcrumbs before lightly pan-frying it in cooking oil. The fish can also be baked with a squeeze of lemon and a dusting of fresh herbs, or rolled and stuffed with a seasoned filling.

Red's Best uses advanced freezer technology to super-freeze their locally caught fish and shellfish to temperatures below -61 degrees Fahrenheit for a minimum of 24 hours. They perform this process as it is necessary to reduce the risk of consuming raw, wild seafood. Red's Best commercial super freezer accelerates the freezing process, and preserves the texture of the proteins by reducing the expansion of water molecules within the flesh of the seafood.

All our seafood selections are evaluated based on location and catch or aquaculture method as recommended by the Monterey Bay Seafood Watch.

Boston, MA

Headquartered on the historic Boston Fish Pier, Red’s Best was founded in 2008 by Jared Auerbach to serve fishermen from local coastal communities in the USA. They aggregate catches, networking small boats with proprietary technology to form a large market presence and level the global playing field. They sustain the livelihoods of American fishermen while sustaining fisheries for harvest. Red’s Best connects you to your fishermen and tells the story of every catch.

As a young fisherman from Boston, Jared worked on commercial vessels in Alaska and Cape Cod during the early 2000’s. He worked alongside hardworking fishermen and saw that with the advent of industrial technology and the governmental regulation of open oceans, traditional fishing communities and family fishing businesses began to struggle for survival. He also saw the abundance of species available in New England’s pristine cold waters. He set out to create a way for consumers to have direct access to the freshest seafood and envisioned a brand that would represent each and every fisherman and the pride of the profession. Red is every fisherman.
