Lox are the traditional, “Old World,” smoked salmon. Depending on who or where it is processed and whether or not it is smoked will determine its name. This type of smoking process is also referred to as Nova or Nova Scotia.

We call our product, “Alaska Lox,” in borrowing techniques used by Alaska natives. At Alaska Smokehouse and Cannery we use a dry brine of salt and brown sugar followed by a trip through our smokehouse using native alder wood to generate smoke. Processing temperatures remain below seventy degrees F.

Lox are commonly used as appetizers such as bagels and cream cheese, although there are many different ways to incorporate them into your diet.

Our award winning, wild, Sockeye Lox are basted in a mild, dry, brine which ensures only the best possible flavors. The Lox are then smoked to perfection using alder chips. Great to top on crackers and dips as an appetizer, alone or incorporated in a sushi roll. The lox is sliced into 6-oz. portions and vacuum-packed on an attractive gold board.

The fillet of Sockeye Lox is a flawless, ruby red 20-oz. side of Sockeye. It is perfectly smoked and packaged making this fish an ultimate delicacy for any dining occasion. Your friends will love it and you will become the highlight of any occasion.
