Thank You to the MV Smokehouse for their Generosity
Thank you to the Martha's Vineyard Smokehouse for donating their smoking services for the remaining bluefish 🐟 we were lucky enough to receive from the Martha's Vineyard Striped Bass & Bluefish Derby, Inc.
Nils "Gus" Leaf, owner of MV Smokehouse intends to donate his smoking services and gave our residents instructions on how to bag the smoked fish for storage - it will be good for approximately 2 months in the refrigerator.
We appreciate Gus for his generosity!
