Rooted in Tradition, Served with NC Coastal Soul: the jumping mullet has long been a staple along the Carolina coast — a humble fish that fed families, brought communities together, and turned into feasts that were as much about fellowship as they were about food. For generations, Black fishermen and cooks made mullet suppers a way to honor the water’s abundance, to share stories, and to celebrate resilience. Today, we gather in Durham to carry forward that legacy — lifting up the flavors, the traditions, and the spirit of a meal that connects us to the past while feeding the future.

We look forward to seeing you for this special celebration of NC Seafood in Durham on October 26th at SALTBOX SEAFOOD JOINT!

Thanks to our Sponsors:  Washington Crab (mullet), Happy Dirt (produce), Botanist & Barrel (hard cider), Harlem Beer (craft beer), SALTBOX Seafood Joint & Ricky Moore for the event and location.
