ANNUAL THANKSGIVING

PARTY TRAY SALE

ON NOW THROUGH 11/12 - ORDER AHEAD AND SAVE!

We heard from customers that the on line order form wasn't working, so we checked, and they were right. Although I could see it, no one else could. We fixed it and are extending the sale until 11/12. So sorry!

The perfect start to any Thanksgiving gathering - it will keep the crowd happy without spoiling their appetite for dinner. Order and pay in advance and save! Though the store is closed on Sunday, the order form on our web site will still be available through midnight on the 12th.

GIVE THANKS WITH SEAFOOD!

We know that most of you have turkey for dinner on Thanksgiving, but here are some wonderful appetizer ideas to keep everyone happy. (Several of you are having stuffed salmon fillets instead of turkey - a turkey thanks you). Our Salmon Cozies are another great main course choice instead of roasting a turkey. We also have many delicious heat-and-eat side dishes that go wonderfully with your bird and some wonderful pies, tarts and ice cream for dessert:


APPETIZERS

Burhop's famous shrimp, cooked in small batches with our own secret blend of spices. Serve with our wonderful cocktail sauce, by the bottle or in bulk. 

Party Trays (Thanksgiving tray orders must be in by Monday 11/20);

Shrimp, Shrimp & Lobster Claws, Poached Salmon, or Hot & Cold Smoked Salmon. Trays come in a variety of sizes and can be ordered by phone, 630-887-4700, or on line.

Burhop's Spreads

Choose from Crab-blend, Smoked Salmon and Smoked Whitefish. All made daily in our kitchen. Just add crackers and feed a crowd!

Hot or Cold Smoked Salmon

Cold smoked from Ducktrap Farms, great on buttered toast points, hot smoked custom done for us here in Chicago, delicious on a cracker. 

Half-shell Oysters

One of the foods enjoyed at the first Thanksgiving, our East Coast oysters make a great appetizer or an elegant first course. To learn how to open an oyster, go to our on-line video by clicking HERE: Shucking an Oyster

Stone Crab Claws (Special Order)

The season has begun! These are the one seafood item which you can eat knowing the crab wasn't killed, and it's busy growing a new claw. Serve as an appetizer or a first course with our Stone Ground Mustard Sauce. 

FIRST COURSE 

We've already mentioned the oysters and stone crab, but our favorite first course for a crowd is a small steaming cup of one of our elegant homemade bisque soups: Choose from Shrimp, Lobster, Butternut Squash, Mushroom and more - just heat and serve with a sprinkling of warm buttered croutons.*

SIDE DISHES

With all the work doing the turkey stuffing, give yourself a break and let us make some of the side dishes. Choose from:

Fresh Roasted Vegetables

Oven Roasted locally grown Butternut Squash

Herb Roasted Potatoes

Oven Roasted Potato Wedges

Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Roasted Ratatouille

Wild Rice and Cherries

Broccoli Salad

Jaime's Rice Pilaf & more

Also available: Shucked oysters for stuffing or scalloped oysters - check out our recipes HERE: Holiday Oyster Recipes

Two of our fresh, locally caught fish from the Great Lakes. Cook it like the fishermen do, breaded and sauteed, or bake in the oven with some Lemon Dill Sauce. Tasty however you cook it!

RUBY RED RAINBOW TROUT

Was $21.95/lb. SALE $19.95/lb.*

This tasty trout is good in any trout or salmon recipe. We love it baked or sautéed with a nut crust - use almonds, pecans, macadamia nuts, or pistachios for a pop of color. Just grind up the chosen nut in a blender, rub the fish with a little olive oil, and press the crushed nuts evenly onto the fish. Bake at 375 degrees for about 12 minutes, serve on a bed of fresh arugula, top with Lemon Dill Sauce or a squeeze of lemon.

   In late June we catered a fun event for a family in Wilmette - a combined 40th and 5th birthday party, father and son. Another father and son duo, Burhop's Chef Jaime and his son Jonny, cooked up kebabs, lobster tails, sweet corn and more for a happy crowd of many ages. According to the hostess: 
"An AMAZING feast thanks to you, John and Jamie. The food was amazing and the chefs could not have been nicer. Everyone was raving and we certainly let them know who to call!  Thank you again, you have very satisfied customers." 
   Recently we did an oyster bar for a party in Hinsdale, and a lobster tail birthday party in Kenilworth. 
And in early October, we did a socially distanced wedding reception with individual lobster boil dinners.
   If you have something to celebrate, do it with great seafood! We will custom design a menu, just for you. To find out more, email us at [email protected], or call us at 630-887-4700.
