The origins of Stanford’s Ultimate Salmon Seasoning trace back to the mid-1960s, when young Stanford took his very first trip to Alaska with his father. It was on that journey, surrounded by rugged wilderness and the thrill of the catch, that he was bitten by the magic of Alaska. Fishing alongside his father, family, and friends, Stanford developed a deep passion for the many incredible species that call Alaskan waters home—and for the delicious ways they could be enjoyed.

Over time, this passion turned into a pursuit. Stanford began collecting recipes, refining them, and perfecting techniques for preparing salmon that would elevate the natural flavors without overpowering them. Many of these recipes were handed down through generations, each touched by tradition and fine-tuned by experience.

About a decade ago, Stanford began crafting small batches of his signature seasoning blend—initially just for personal use and to share with family and friends. What became immediately clear was that there was truly nothing else like it. Everyone who tried it agreed: it made preparing a perfectly seasoned salmon fillet or steak incredibly easy—and unbelievably delicious.

Now, we’re proud to share Stanford’s Ultimate Salmon Seasoning with you. We hope it brings as much joy to your table as it has to ours.

And salmon is just the beginning—we’ve discovered countless other ways to use this versatile seasoning, and we’re always excited to hear from our customers about how they’re using it in their own kitchens. So fire up the grill, season generously, and let the magic of Alaska come alive on your plate.
