Hot Smoked

Smoked Eel – £50 per kilo

Price range: £12.50 through £50.00

Sustainably caught from local tidal river. Unfilleted. A speciality.

✔ Ready To Eat

Our Smoked Eel is one of the finest examples of traditional Suffolk smoking — rich, buttery, and deeply aromatic. Each eel is sustainably caught from local tidal rivers before being hot smoked over real oak in our Aldeburgh smokehouse. The slow, gentle smoking process gives it a golden finish, firm texture, and an unforgettable depth of flavour.

Once considered a delicacy reserved for special occasions, smoked eel is now enjoying a well-deserved revival. Its naturally high oil content makes it incredibly moist and flavourful, with a distinctive richness that pairs perfectly with rye bread, horseradish, or simple boiled potatoes.

Smoked the old way — by hand, in small batches, beside the Suffolk coast — this is a true taste of local craftsmanship. Each piece is prepared with care to preserve the natural quality of the eel while bringing out its subtle sweetness and buttery finish.
