For 30 years, Tessie has been a cornerstone of her local community, bringing families together with the irresistible aroma of her homemade smoked fish. What began as a modest venture to support her family has blossomed into a beloved tradition, with Tessie waking before dawn each day to carefully prepare her fish using age-old smoking techniques passed down through generations.
Tessie’s smoked fish isn’t just food—it’s a labor of love. Each batch is hand-selected, meticulously cured, and slowly smoked to perfection, creating a flavor that is both timeless and unforgettable. Known for its golden-brown sheen, savory taste, and melt-in-your-mouth texture, Tessie’s smoked fish has become a staple at celebrations, Sunday lunches, and family gatherings.
