Croaker Delivery or Pickup

Baked, grilled, or fried croaker can be served with potatoes and vegetables, such as carrots or asparagus. Alternatively, you can use them in a fish taco recipe, which usually includes taco seasoning, tomatoes, avocados, and tortilla wraps. Many Korean or Asian dishes also include croaker, such as drizzled with soy sauce or served with rice, vegetables, and a spicy sauce. Croaker can also be added as an extra ingredient to a crab or shrimp salad. For example, try combining mayonnaise, shrimp, croaker, cilantro, tomatoes, and grated cheese with a seasoning of salt and pepper.

As its name suggests, the Atlantic croaker is typically found along the U.S. Atlantic coast. Croaker are also often caught in the Gulf of Mexico, especially by shrimp trawlers. Recreational anglers often catch croaker since they feed on types of bait that are easy to access, like worms and crustaceans. The regional distribution of croaker ranges from Cape Cod in the north to the Mississippi Delta in the south.
