Good to know comache tortilla factory is still going strong. I met Ben in the late 90s great man. God Bless

It’s definitely an art, and I’m glad to see it carried on.

A tamale wit a substantial amout of filling. Yum. My grwat Aunt Pearl was married to a mexican man. He always had me tamales waiting when we went to visit. That was in the 50's.

It's these family places that have help build and maintain traditional family values in our Great State of Texas once we lose it it's gonna be a sad day

Mr Ben Gallegos passed away this week. God Speed sir.

The sons are doing a great job maintaining the longevity, but I bet Martha is the real reason the business is still in the market.

Gods bless our great state with so much love and talent

I need to make a trip to Fort Stockton

Years ago, after helping my aunt fix hot tamales, my wife and I fixed a batch. On my first one she said, "That's too much masa". I reduced it some and she said it was still too much masa. I explained as nice as I could that I watched my mother make tamales before she was born. She didn't say any thing and I fixed about a dozed. When I ate the first one, I told her that's too much masa. She replied, "I know and you have about a dozen just like it to eat". I guess I never really learned when to keep my mouth shut.

Thank you. Sending this link to a good friend who is from Fort Stockton. 👍👍

Those tamales looks fantastic. Thanks for sharing this story with us. I will make the trip there.

I love a good tortilla shop/factory

I live in the small town I grew up in having travelled coast to coast and spent time in 3 countries and I came back thankful for home. My dad equates it to a dog or pigeon and magnetism drawing you back to center, I say it's the Redwoods and the Ocean cliffs of Mendocino County and the 4th of July Frontier Days Rodeo the oldest continuest in California only 98 years young.

This makes me hungry! Great video, great tamales! 🫔🫔🫔

I grew up in ft stockton and ate a lot of this I need to go back

Excellent video clip Greetings from North Texas

Love fresh tamales! Wish we had a source here in WY

Pull up in front and honk your horn. Here in north central Texas we call that the MEXICAN doorbell.

Those look delicious ❤️

🏆🏆🏆👍🇺🇲🙏 Thank you for sharing

Great episode.

growing up we did this every time we butchard a pig, using only the hog (well cleaned)for meat, and rather than water in the masa, my grandmother used the cooking liquid from the head, killr eat'n with a little salt, or with eggs, salsa and hashbrowns!

We’re planning a trip to Big bend, this is definitely a stop on the way. Thanks for sharing.

Born and raised in Ft Stockton I went there for tamales. In high school me and some buddies loaded up in my car at lunch time and went there for tamales, I got mine first and went back to the car and started eating mine. Something caught my attention and I looked and there was a huge flying ant embedded in the masa. I rolled it back up and offered it to one of my low IQ friends when he got in the car. As soon as he swallowed it I busted out laughing and told him, but he didn’t care he got a free tamale....🤣🤣🤣. Good Times! It didn’t stop me from going there those tamales were too good. I also remember buying tamales people would sell off there tailgates rolling through the poor neighborhoods for $2/dz and they were hog head tamales, the best ever.....

Thanks for sharing this with us. It just keeps getting more fattening. NOT COMPLAINING

I can hurt myself on tamales!!!

Brandon Herrera - Republican for Texas District 23 - If it's true that Tony Gonzalez has been voting with the Biden Administration and is similar to John Cornyn on 2nd Amendment issues......it's time to REPLACE Gonzalez. Attention is needed on this West Texas race.

Texas Tomales is TEXAS, NOT LIKE THE ONES IN MEXICO OR CENTRAL AMERICA

Wonderful story!........I hope the WOKE parasites leave them alone when it comes to their name and logo.

Nice, but this place isn't unique. They are everywhere in the southwest.
