salt to taste
2 Tbsp oil (to simmer puree)
35 to 40 corn husks
12 to 16 quart steamer pot
INSTRUCTIONS
*Note: Use the method of your choice to cook beef until tender
-In a 4.5 crock pot add beef, bouillon cube, dried bay leaf, onion, garlic, 2 cup water, cover with lid, set to high and cook for 6 hours or until beef is tender
- Once beef is cooked, remove onion, set aside and reserve
- Remove beef from crock pot, shred or chop to desired texture
- Strain out any liquid from crock pot and reserve
CHILE PUREE
- remove stems, seeds and rinse the dried chiles
- place in a small pot, cover with water, bring to a boil, remove from heat and steep until soft and pliable
- Once chiles are soft, remove from boiling liquid and place in to a blender along with 1 2/3 cup of beef broth or water, 2 cloves of garlic, reserved onion from crock pot and puree well
- Strain puree for any bits that did not puree
- Reserve 1/3 cup of chile puree to add to masa dough
MEAT FILLING
- In a preheated skillet add 2 Tbsp oil, strained chili puree, salt to taste and simmer for 3 minutes over a medium heat
- Now add chopped beef to simmering chili puree and continue to combine and simmer for another 3 to 5 minutes
- Now set aside until ready to assemble tamales
MASA PREPARATION
- In a large bowl add instant corn flour, baking powder, salt to taste and combine well
- Now add lard or shortening, 1/3 cup of chile puree and combine well
- Next start by adding 2 cups of warm beef broth or water and mix well
- Now add an additional 1 to 1 1/2 cups of broth or water until masa dough is the texture of play dough and can squeeze through your fingers easily
NOTE: Keep extra warm water or broth on the sided just in case masa dough starts to dry out
TAMAL ASSEMBLY
- Take your softened presoaked corn husk and spread from the center 3 to 4 Tbsp of masa dough on the corn husk leaving a one inch space from the top of the husk
- Next add meat filling and enclose the tamal
- Now fold the bottom part of the husk up and continue the process
COOK TAMALES
- In a 16 quart steamer pot add 2 1/4 liters of water to the pot then place the steamer plate in
- Place a small heat proof ceramic or stone bowl upside down in the center and start stacking all of your tamales around the bowl
*NOTE: the cook time will vary depending how tightly you pack the pot
- Now place extra corn husks on top to cover tamales, a cloth and cover with the lid
- Bring the water to a boil first, lower the heat to a medium heat and cook for 1 hour to 1 hour and a half or once a tamal comes out easily from the corn husk
- Remove all the tamales from the pot and allow to set for at least 20 minutes then serve
- This recipe makes at least 30 tamales

How To Make The Best Beef

I’m going to try this. I’m 47 yr old Mexican man and sadly none of my family talks anymore, all over money. But I remember my grandma and Tia every year making tamales. Time to start my own tradition with my own kids.
-
"Let them sit for 20 to 30 minutes" Are you crazy??? I can't walk away cause my family will finish them in less than 10!!! They look delicious!!
-
I just made these and I’m crying. They taste just like my abuelitas. She passed away 12 years ago and I could never perfect her recipe. This was it! Thank you for it. It took me back to my childhood❤

I'm African American however I love, love authentic Mexican food. I am over 50 years old and have become aware of this. My daughter has introduced me to so many delectable dishes. Tamales is one of those. Your video is so straight forward. Maybe I can convince my daughter to make Tamales with me. Thank you for making this video. Those Tamales look so delicious!

2 years ago in December I made 7 dozen tamales by myself. I had researched and researched on the internet on various recipes as this was the first time I had ever made them. I used my Instant Pot and I cooked the chiles in with the beef which kills two birds with one stone and infuses the meat w/ the chiles while cooking as well. I used unprepared masa and I learned a trick, I used Crisco, since we don't eat pork, and learned to use my blender and whip up the shortening to make it light and fluffy then mix it in the masa along with the beef/chile broth. I learned to drop a little bit of the masa in a glass of water and if it sinks it needs more shortening but if the drop of masa floats in the water then it's ready to use. I got one of those tamale spreaders and it's a HUGE helper! After I got all the tamales made, I also include a slice of potato and green olives in them, I posted it on FB, it was really late at night, and one of my Mexican friends commented she was "coming over" and she really did! She raved about my tamales. I also gave some to my niece who is 1/2 Mexican and she loved them so I must have done something right. They were so delicious, better than any Mexican restaurant here in town and I live 10 miles from the border!

For some reason I've always been intimidated to make tamales, even when my grandma makes them. You've just made it look so easy. Hopefully now I could be able to make them.
-
I'm not Mexican, but when I was 21 I worked as a dishwasher in a Mexican restaurant. The ladies there taught me how to make many things from scratch. But, I never learned how to make tamales. After watching your video, I can't wait to give it a try. Your video was very well done, the process well explained. 😊 ❤
-
I made them today! First time ever making tamales they came out great. Thank you so much!
-
Your house has to be the best smelling one in the neighborhood. My lord girl you sure can cook. And your voice has such a relaxing feel by the way.
-
I love Mexican culture, people, and their food! Your history is so deep! With all due respect GOD bless you ma'am!
-
We followed this recipe this year and this is officially the recipe we’re going to be using forever!
-
I think your grandmother would be so proud of you, not only a great cook, speaker, and teacher, your fans feel the love you have for your grandmother.
-
Rarely you find something like this in youtube. Besides the great recipe. This video is so well done. No gimmicks, right to the point, smooth voice. And of course mouth watering!

Whos else's mouth watered when she unwrapped the TAMALE 👇

I absolutely love your method of teaching! You are to the point, engaging, super knowledgeable and have such a wonderful voice. I’ve watched a few other Hispanic cuisines and their videos were soooooo long that I couldn’t finish to watch how the recipe turned out. Added bonus…are all of the little tips you mention while teaching your audience. Thank you!
-
Your story about your grandmother touched my heart. My paternal great grandmother was a Mexican lady who made the best tamales. I miss her!🥰❤️
-
Possibly the easiest recipe for tamales that I've seen. Thank you! I appreciate the easy explanation, the clear step by step, and the good camera work. This will be the recipe I try for my first time ever!
-
You make your tamales just like my momma. My momma is now in her 80's and we make them every holiday. But I now record her so that I can hear her talk of her life . Thank you for sharing your recipe and your story of your Abuela.
-
I am black and would love to learn how to make tamales but I have always been told that it takes several people to make them cause it includes a lot of preparation. However, watching u make ur tamales, I feel I may stand a chance in giving them a try. This is something I hope to do for the holidays coming. So thank u very much for showing and sharing ur recipe 🙏🏾

Where I live corn husk are really hard to find. So when I find them I freeze them in my deep freezer and when I get ready to use them I just boil them in water on the stove and they turn out perfect. I just wanted to share that little tip.
