Mail order food items-gift for dad
Posted on 7/27/16 at 1:45 pm

So I need a gift for my dad. For father's day I ordered him a case of gourmet Usinger's hot dogs (after a suggestion from this board), and he absolutely loved it.
What's something else unique I could get him?

Where does he live and what type of food does he like?

He lives in Indiana. He's from the east coast, so maybe something from up there? He also enjoys cajun, seafood, and bbq.

My Dad loves halibut and I've ordered some online from a place called Vital Choice several times. It's been one of his favorite gifts.
You could order boudin for him from any number of places.
I've ordered stuffed chickens for folks from Hebert's in Maurice. Not the Oklahoma franchise, but directly from Maurice. They've always been a hit.

Thanks again, he won't quit raving about how good the damn things are!

Get him sous vide cooker with no instructions and film him trying to figure it out.

The best mail-order food comes from Zingermans, IMHO. Send him one of their Reuben sandwich kits, or six months of bread, or the bacon of the month club. Check it out: LINK Z's offers everything from olive oil & fancy canned Spanish seafood to rugelach, birthday cakes, and lime curd, with stops along the way at heirloom pork, cheeses, and gelato.

Order him a dozen lobsters from the Lobstaman...

Bourgeois Meat Market in Thibodaux will ship a "meat pack" for you. Just go HERE and select whatever you want to send him. When my Dad lived in NC I used to do one for him every year. Smoked sausage, fresh sausage, hoghead cheese, andouille and of course beef jerky...the fresh garlic sausage is killer btw.

Which Usinger's products did you recommend?

Cajuns might not know that they don't have a corner on the blood sausage market.

My German father swears by the summer sausage. Every time I return to Milwaukee I'm at Mader's for food, shop the spice house and Usingers.

What about the various hot dogs?

I love a good hot dog which is why I was asking which ones are the best.
