I laughed when I saw the title of this video! I’m a gringo who lived in South Texas for 22+ years. My “adopted” Hispanic mom made the BEST enchiladas and I had eaten enchiladas all over Texas. When I finally talked her into teaching me how to make them, they were almost the exact same recipe as your mom’s! The only difference was in addition to the cheddar cheese, she added a little bit of grated Velveeta! She would freeze the Velveeta before she grated it (this was in the ‘80s before they sold bags of grated Velveeta in the stores.) Her family had lived in the Rio Grande Valley since way before Texas became Texas and I thought I was going to get this secret recipe of Mexico for enchiladas. I still make them now almost 40 years later and they’re still my favorite!

I love this guy, and especially when he's with his mom. It's more than food.

Mom's cooking is always the best 👌

Arnie we made your mom’s enchilada recipe here at our house man they were Good my family loved them so much we made them twice 😂. Tell your mom thank you 😊.

Food looks great but the love in the family is even better 😭

Man, your Mom is so heart warming and endearing. Thanks for sharing her with us along with the recipes! Love them!

Your Mom is so adorable 🥰

NO MATTER WHAT, food made by your mother is ALWAYS 1,000,000% better than ANYTHING that anyone else can make. i know that i will NEVER out cook my mom no matter how good i am in the kitchen cause i learned everything from her.

Every time there is a mom recipe, you know its going to be good. Once I heard you say you were going to use a sauce from scratch, I already new you were the winner. I am sure moms recipe is just as good, but I am old school and the only reason I will make a recipe out of a can (which I call a Rachael Ray"s fast meal) is when i am feeling lazy. I will use Las Palmas sauce or El Pato sauce. Top it off with queso fresco, queso cotija. As you say, which ever way you make it , it will turn out to taste great. Thanks for sharing. I will have to see if I can find and taste that wolfy chili, here in California.

That's some delicious looking enchiladas there! Always enjoy seeing your mom.

I used wolf brand chili once just on a whim, but I mixed it with some red Chile sauce. It was so good! 😋

Oh I want to watch your video again and learn to make both of your enchilada dinners thank you 🙏 🥰

Looks delicious! Mom and son in the kitchen together is wonderful!!😎

Hey Arnie, this gave me a couple ideas. My mom used to make enchiladas with onions too, and I discovered if you soak the onions for 10 minutes and rinse them out, it takes away a lot of the unpleasant bite raw onions have. Also, I think if you covered the pan with foil and then uncover them for a few minutes at the end, you can get the best of both worlds in regards to softness and color.

Watching momma and you in the kitchen makes me happy 😊 I am excited to make chile sauce and enchiladas now!

I remember my grandmother given me the recipe for enchiladas with the wolf chili over 50 years ago. Thank you for reminding me. I'll be given and showing my granddaughters how to make enchiladas with the wolf and red sauce.

Your mama is making me miss mine . . she also reminds me of my aunt Beatrice - I'm so happy you get to cook with your mom. I would have given anything for my mom to be able to cook with me and my son in the kitchen just once. Your mom is an angel!

Love your videos and recipes! Reminds me a lot of the food back home in RGV. Thank you and don’t ever stop cooking!!!

Love the mom son relationship.

I made the Wolf chili one's but added ground beef. They were delicious and easy 😋 !!!!❤

I have to give the win to mama. Her enchilada looked like it was covered in smooth liquid gold lava! Mmmmmmm Mmmmmmmm good! But Arnie, POINTS to you for adding meat AND cheese inside your enchilada! I cook up some ground beef on the side just like the way you do but also use the Wolf on top. You get 2 contrasting tastes and the best of both worlds! Keep up the great work!

My grandmother does the wolf style, it’s actually pretty good for those wondering.

Arnie Tex you are an amazing dude! I have been following your videos making a bunch of different delicious home style recipes and appreciate the effort you put into creating amazing easy to follow videos! Also I LOVE your mama and her insight on all these amazing foods!!!

I've never made an authentic Tex-Mex dish, but then again I didn't know how easy it was in this video shows that thanks for the video we're definitely going to try this in my family

I've made them with wolf brand chili for years... quick and delicious...

My ex use to make killer rabbit enchiladas. It's a interesting process. Kinda freaky at first, pretty good though.

When I see Arnie's mom, I know it's a must watch!

My mom always made the Wolf brand chili cheese enchiladas and I made them for my kids. We love them.

Arnie, I grew up on the style you make and love them, but I gotta go with your Mama’s- love Tejanos and love your Mama!❤

Those enchiladas look delicious. I use both ground beef AND Wolf Brand chili, kudos to your Mom!!

I just found your channel, and I love the way you cook. I also love how often you have your mom on.

You cant beat momma. I also learned the wolf style enchiladas from my mom.😊 Her recipe is a little different but just as good.

I could eat Wolf chili straight out of the can! I love it when your mom is in the kitchen with you. Cherish those memories.

It’s a great learning experience and a pleasure watching y’all!

Your mom reminds me of my mom. Treasure all the moments you possible can. Thank you for this video….There is nothing better than Tex Mex!

I love to see mom & son cooking together 🥰

Wolf chili enchiladas! I have never met anyone else that ate that kind. My mom made those all the time. 😊 so glad I found this video.

I grew up in Texas, so I love Tex-Mex cooking! Both your enchiladas look wonderful! Wolf brand chili is the best canned chili as far as I'm concerned. 😋 Thanks for sharing your mom with us and for all your wonderful recipes. ❤

I like your show more and more every time I watch it! Love how y’all tease each other.

Exxcellent! With Dos XX

I’m a new sub. I found you when I was looking for a good enchilada recipe using red sauce. I never even thought of using Wolf Brand Chili! Your recipe looks delicious too. I think I’m going to try using your beef recipe and add it to a can of Wolf Brand Chili. The best of both worlds???? I’ll definitely be tenting mine. 😊

The foil tent is something I’ve never heard of but I have to try! Those both looked so good my mouth was watering!

I'm from south Texas, currently living in Iowa, and my mom would make them like this and she would use sliced cheese. Kraft. They were so good! She would also make them in the traditional way when she had time.

Yessss! You and your Mom are the best!! The red chili sauce turned out terrific and the enchiladas UMMMMUMMM!!

Both look great! I've never tried using wolf brand chili on enchiladas. I'll have to do that the next time I make some. Thank you for sharing with us!

You honor you beautiful mom and that’s a rare thing these days. I love Wolf chili enchiladas! They are so good. But I love traditional enchiladas as well. Enjoyed your video!

Omg I thought my mom was the only one who made tejano enchilada 😮 that’s awesome. Good child hood memories

Love seeing la jefa on the videos bro. Dile que ima try the wolf enchiladas really soon!!! Thanks!!! ❤️🔥

Both my parents grew up in NM so I grew up eating the red enchiladas stacked flat with the fried egg on top that she mentioned. It’s soooo good!

Oh my goodness. I have never found anybody that makes enchiladas like I do. I'm a fifth generation Texan and make enchiladas just like your mama including the wolf brand chili on top and Colby jack cheese inside.

I woulda never thought to use Wolf Brand for enchiladas. I'm intrigued, gonna have to give your Mom's recipe a try. Love your content.

Cherish the moments cooking with your Mom!! I sure miss cooking with my mother!!

I added a pinch of salt, garlic powder, cumin and a pinch of chili powder and a cup of water. To the wolf chilli they came out so good 😋😋

Thank you so much for sharing all of these wonderful recipes. Good stuff bud.

My mother always made cheese enchiladas with wolf brand chili so now I do. You are the first I have seen do it this way. Love it!! We also put extra onions on top with the cheese. I’ve never seen enchiladas in a restaurant with chili on them and I really don’t like red sauce. I’m going with your mom for the win!! We are from the Lubbock area and there is a lot of great Mexican food here but nothing topped mom’s enchiladas.

Come on Arnie, you should know that mama is always right! Lol

So beautiful that you include your mum! Very very special to me! Love your show making all salsas and make some of salsas to entertain in my home Thank you so much for all spices 😊 Love you from the heart as a chef 👩‍🍳 myself

Both recipes look tasty. Thank you for sharing. Mom’s recipe is more fitting to my hurry up cooking style. And Wolf is a staple in my cupboards. That’s right, alway listen to Mom!

I love chili. All kinds of chili, even Wendy's chili. I discovered Wolfe brand chili when we got some in our Seattle Dollar Tree store. Now if I find it at Walmart I buy 5 cans at a time. Dennison is still my favorite with Nalleys a close second. Happy to see someone else use chili in their enchiladas

I am from Texas living in China for the last 5 years. Unable to go home due to COVID restrictions that canceled air travel. I made mom's enchiladas yesterday and they were so delicious. I am unable to find Wolf brand chili here (there's a hole in the market), but I used a different brand. Same with tortillas so hard to find, but I managed. Gracias a tu mami tan linda!

LOVE seeing your mama☺

I've never even thought of putting chili on enchiladas, but I haven't had a bad recipe from you. Will try both. Thank you Arnie and mom!

Your beef enchiladas, with your moms wolf chili on top... Magical!

I always make them with the traditional sauce like Arnie, have to try it the other way some time. Arnie, if you dip the tortillas in the hot oil like your mom does and then dip them into the sauce right before you fill and roll them they’re not as likely to tear apart. It was a trial and error thing for me LOL

Looks so damn good! 😂 much respect from Oregon

This was so amazing, I couldn’t get over how easy and bonus, I found Wolfe brand! Seriously, thank you 😊I also stuffed a few with smoked pulled pork

I love this and the wolf chili enchiladas was my favorite growing up, that's how my mom always made them (TEX MEX) and they are delicious but yours look soooo good too! I don't discriminate ever!! YUMMMMY!

I love this channel not only does the food look amazing, the content is wholesome and something I didn't know needed thru out my day I love mom, she adds that good ole family feel to the show

they both look delicious!😋 my mom made enchiladas with wolf brand chili too ... brings back wonderful memories!

This is exactly how my mother in law taught me to make them using wolf brand chili about 30 years ago. She's from the Robstown area. I stack them sometimes because it's faster than rolling them. I love them...and they taste even better the next day.

Those both look great. Your mom is the best! Looks like you both had fun making these.

I just love you Mom on these videos! Both look really good, but I vote for Mom's!

I really like your videos, but I really enjoy when you have your Mom on here. If I could I'd give you two thumbs up!!

hola, Arnie, mi mamá también hizo sus enchiladas con Wolf Chili

I'm 55 and I'm a 6th Generation Texan. Your TexMex is so amazing and spot on! I love the Wolf Enchiladas for a very quick meal. However, I really love the way you make them for huge family gatherings. I'm so glad I found your channel! The love you have for each other is refreshing❤! Are the Pitmaster spices available in grocery stores? *(I'm in East Texas)!

Looks awesome.. thank you for the video Arnie Tex and Mom

@arnietex my grandfather did his enchiladas the same way as your mom. My mom and I have both done it the same way and taught people our way.. I have recently started making my own chilli sauce. One suggestion I would make is to do the tortillas in oil then put a thin layer of chilli sauce on the bottom of the pan and after placing the enchiladas, put some sauce on top with cheese and or onion. It makes rolling them much easier.

Grew up 30 minutes from Pecos! Nothing beats a red Chile beef enchilada.

Can't go wrong, I'll try 2 of each

The enchiladas that Arnie makes is how my mother would make them and the chili enchiladas is how they would make them at restaurants and my elementary school. So I love both styles of enchiladas.

Awesome video both looked amazing BUT im going with mom . I loved the video because it also reminded me of when I would cook with my mom and she passed away last year in may at 72. More videos with mom ❤

Good stuff Arnie and Mama! Always using your salsa recipes and the flippity-flip technique for grilling. Smoked some chx drums for MLK day w/ WOW and they came out terrific.

Thank you for your videos. I'm not much of a cook, but this looks so easy to make that I will give it a shot.

Made Arnie Mamas version tonight and the kids love them. Your Mom reminds me of my Mama.❤

Great mom and great son. You two are an inspiration to the world! 😂😢😅

Heard what y'all said about Pecos! We're originally from there with family in Alpine! Now I live near San Antonio with my own family! My parents were Guebara's, and we lived right in front of Pecos Elementary on Willow Street! I enjoy your videos!

Love your vids man, keep it up!

Those both look awesome!! I have to try this!!

your mom is awesome! love the content!😁

I like the red chile ground beef enchiladas the best! You have a beautiful Mom. Thanks...

Those both looked wonderful. I'm dying for good mexican food

I just made your moms style of enchiladas they came out great never had this style before thanks for sharing👍🏼

Awesome experience to make a video with your mom!! 👍🏽

I made your moms recipe and added a can of Hatches enchalada sauce to the Wolf chili and it was da bomb!!!

I use wolf brand too at times. Sometimes I add mom's salsa to it.

Whoa! Learned something new today. Our family only use Wolf Chili without beans and I will be trying this recipe. TY

I swear moms can handle the hottest food. Right out the pan. But, I love your mom. She's awesome.❤

I made your mom's recipe tonight and it was a hit! Thanks!

Love y’all!! Thank u

Hello Arnie and mama, just want to let you know I really like your recipes my grandma use to cook Tex-Mex and her tamale’s we’re the best and Arnie I like your enchiladas but I have never tried the way your mom makes them so I’m making them right now since there was enough sauce in the chili beans I dipped them in and rolled with a little onion and cheese and now just waiting for my husband to wake up to put the chili beans on top and put cheese on top cover them and put them in the oven. I love watching you and your mom and your recipes are superb, thanks for sharing. God bless
