Description Shark is a wonderfully firm and meaty fish with a mild flavor and slightly sweet finish. Similar to swordfish, it is perfect for grilling, and its steak-like texture makes it an ideal alternative to red meat! It’s a natural choice for skewers and can withstand bolder seasonings. Because it is on the lean side, many chefs will marinate shark to keep it moist and increase its flavor profile Sustainability Our Mako shark is locally harvested off the coast of California. The fishery is well managed in the US to ensure stocks are sustainable and bycatch and habitat impacts are minimal. The US is a leader in shark conservation, and NOAA Fisheries works to sustainably manage shark populations by conducting research, assessing stocks, working with fishermen, and implementing regulations.
