Check out the NEW updated video fro Red Chili Pork Tamales
• Pork Tamales Step by S...
Welcome to this How to make red chili pork Tamales video. I take you step by step into the process to make it as easy as possible for you. I hope you enjoyed the video. It can take a pretty long time about 4-6 hours to make pork tamales. Please take that into consideration when you decide to make the Pork Tamales.
I would recommend if you are a beginner, to make the meat and the sauce on one day and the next day finish the recipe. It can be a bit overwhelming. So if you break it down into 2 day you will feel better in taking on the recipe. In my humble opinion.

Here I have for you my version of how I make pork Tamales. I go step by step with you to try and give you an easy understanding of the process, from starting the dough to making the meat stuffing. This is a very traditional meal in our family for the Holidays.. This Tamale recipe is not an exact recipe, I explain in the video how every family might have a different recipe or make them a little different.

I made tamales for the first time. I made them specifically following your masa recipe, the masa was what I really was worried about. -They came out fantastic! I just went for the texture you described while mixing and never floated it. I also found using the spreader to be a real time saver compared to using a spoon, which I tried. I rolled them up and cooked them for about 90 mins. When I pulled them out I thought I ruined them, the liquid from the lid had dripped down onto them, making them too soft. I pulled one out and it would not hold together. I simply left the pot uncovered for a couple hours and they firmed right up. I could unroll them easily and they stayed together. The real test is the taste and texture. The red chili sauce was perfect, maybe mine came out a little redder than I wanted as I had made a rich chili colorado mixture. The taste was spot on, I could taste the corn just the right amount, not bland. But, the texture...heaven! It was not rubbery or crumbly and was firm enough to be picked up with a fork. Thank you so much for sharing your great recipe with all of us newbies... 😍😍😍

Going to try making tamales for the 1st time. I grew up with my mom and my grandmother making them but sadly they passed away before I took the time to learn how to make them. I learned many things from them like their enchiladas, green chile stew, posole but Tamales and tortillas I never got the chance to learn. I attempted to make tortillas a few weekends ago and that was a failure. This week I am going to try the tamales. I will use your video and your wisdom as my guide and hopefully my mother and grandmother will be on my shoulder as well. Thank you

I learned years ago while dating a Mexican man how to make Tamales. We video taped it, so we had how to make them once his momma passed away. Well, we split up, and I didn't get a copy of the video. I'm still very close to him and his family, though. All I can say was that it was an entire day's process to make them. It was at that point where I understood how his mom kept her arms in shape (with the masa). She also would add some of the chili to her masa. They were so yummy!!!! I appreciate your very well put together video on the process. Now I will give another try to make them. Thank you!

You are the first person I see that makes tamales as close as my mom use to. 2 things are different. She didn’t use peppercorn and she didn’t add chile to the masa. But everything else is the same. I’ve been making tamales since she past 7 years ago. I finally figured out that it was the Manteca I wasn’t using enough of. After seeing you, I know now that was my problem. Thank you for sharing. 🤗

I know you made this video 2 yrs ago, but I just came upon it… I was so excited to see it because it’s just like we made our tamales for years. Our family would get together a few weeks before Christmas. We would sit around a few tables and would spread the masa and my mom would fill them. We made a few thousand. My mom had a lot of kids and the rule was : he who does not make the tamales, does not eat them. 😊 Anyway we made so many because we would freeze them and on Christmas Eve we would eat them and have them again for breakfast….. also each family would have a lot to take home. Boy I miss those Christmas… Every time I hear about Pork Tamales I think of my Mamá y Papá Your video is so clear and easy to understand . You do a great job! I’ll have to see what other videos of yours that I can find . 😊 Maria Fisher

I quit buying tamales because some were too dry, too bland, or too greasy. I followed your recipe exactly. I had the meat, masa, and husks ready when my husband got home. We ate dinner then started putting the tamales together. I spread the masa on the husks, and he filled them and wrapped them up. We steamed them for two hours. We took out 2, let them cool for 10 minutes and decided this recipe is a keeper. DELICIOUS!!!! By the way, I’m 66 years old; my mother never made tamales so this was my first attempt EVER!!

I am 75yrs young, I grew up watching my grandmothers making tamales and started helping with spreading the mass on the hoja when I was about 9. Never more than that and never new the recipe for the meat or the mass. It was just remembering the taste and what I liked. one of my grandma's was from Texas and had a lot of children plus tons of grandchildren. So she would make them very thin and that's the way I like them. I like the amount of meat you put on the tamale. About the age of 40 me and my sister decided to make tamales. With just a call to my aunt for a little advise, we made our tamales and they were good. We have improved since then. But I do want to thank you for teaching me something no one ever told me or explain why I would drop the ball of mass into water, I would knead the hell out of the mass and that mass would never float!!! So THANK YOU. I have sheared your video with my nephew in Idaho so he can see what I am taking about.

When loading the prepared tamales into the steamer basket, I recommend loading them while the basket is horizontal (like a front loading dryer) and then when it's full, placing the basket into the larger pan that has the water in it. My wife makes large batches of tamales and we found that its easier this way when you have to put 300 tamales in one steamer pot.

You are so easy to listen to. Your directions are clear, and you give visuals of the products you use, and that makes the recipe so simple to follow. The best thing about your instructions are; after you give the specific details, you point out a few times that it is okay to find the way that works best for us. Want more meat? Fill it up! Want more sauce? Go ahead and add it! It's nice to know that there is no right or wrong way to make tamales. Once we get the procedure down, and are comfortable with it, we are free to find what we like best, and do it our way. I'm a feeder. It gives me great joy to cook and fill the bellies of people I love. It's not uncommon for the younger guys at work (the all call me "Moms") to come to me and say, "Moms can you make me (insert food here)?" Of course I will! I don't like to leave any of "my boys" feeling left out, so it's a good thing I naturally cook for a crowd 😁. I can't wait to try this recipe. I'll have time this next Wednesday and Thursday on my days off. I am done with Christmas preparations, so my two days off are mine to cook, and this is what I'm going to prepare! 😋

Hi Laura! Thank you for your video. I remember making tamales with my Grandmother many years ago. After she passed I made them with my mom a few times. Sadly she too is gone and so is the recipe. These look as close to my family’s tradition tamales as I can remember. The only thing my grandma used to do was add rice flour to the masa. I’m not sure what the ratio of masa and rice flour would be, but it was the lightest tasting tamale I ever had, My grandpa would knead the dough for what seems like hours. I can truly say I measure every tamale I try to my grandma’s and none can compare until I found your recipe....not a lot of masa, not a lot of meat because as she used to say, you may not have a lot of money at times to buy enough meat to make them larger, so make them small. They know what to expect. My daughter and I are going to take a stab at tamales for Christmas as a surprise for my dad. He’s 88 and it’s his mother’s recipe. Thank you for the walk down memory lane.

for real don’t be a jerk. Just because there is film, doesn’t mean I can or could just pull this off on a first go. Who knows, maybe I could. Again being rude isn’t very flattering for you.

Shyblues no not yet. I tried about a year ago and totally flopped. Lol. I didn’t have this video. My masa was horrible. I will try again though.

Hello Laura, my Mom use to always try to teach me how to make tamales. Unfortunately it never stuck. Now that she is gone to be with the Lord I wish I had paid more attention. This video was basically the same technique and the way you explain it is very good. Now with technology I can always go back if needed. Thank you so much for for a good memory of my Mom. I am going to try it and I will let you know how it comes out. Thanks again and stay Blessed.

I have watched every single tamale video trying to learn how to make them because the East Coast sucks when it comes to Mexican food. I’m use to good Tex-Mex flavorful food. Yours is the best video with instructions. I just love you and look forward to many more videos. Thank you for sharing and teaching us.

Oh my goodness! You make it look so easy. I'm going to have to try them by myself. I used to make them with my mom, but I lost my mom 21 yrs. ago and I've never made them again. I never thought I could make them by myself but I love how you have explained everything so careful and clearly. I will definitely try your recipe by myself. Thank you for sharing.

Followed your instructions and hit a grand slam. I never made Masa for tamales from scratch, so this was a first. I used our Kitchen Aide mixer and followed your instructions. The Masa came out great and spread easily on the corn husk. Best of all Tamales were great. Thank you.
