somebody shut me the fark up.
Great looking tamales there Bob, I like the custom tamale spreaders, stupid me, I bought some silicone spatulas for mine. Your boy looks like a character, can he get a whole tamale in there?
These things really are a labor of love. I tell you, I'd give anything, to be able to have one more "Tamale Party" with my grandparents and entire family together again. The good thing is we were able to have enough of them that I can still cherish the memories. Also, because of them, we created some new ones with my parents, and now with my kids too.

Those tamales are amazing! You are my hero.
That boy is quite the character, but his little sister makes him look tame. I average about 3-4 gray hairs a piece with those two just about every day. The two of them can put those tamales down. Even though they were spicy, they didn't stop eating em. It was a ratio of 1 to 1. One bite of the tamale and one big swig of ice tea. But they ate em. The spreaders are also one of my grandpa's old tricks.Great looking tamales there Bob, I like the custom tamale spreaders, stupid me, I bought some silicone spatulas for mine.

Mick,Looks great Bob! I've made them a couple of times before and I can attest to the amount of labor that goes into them. I learned to prepare everything and then have friends over to actually put them together. On your original post, in the second picture, what is the pot with the turn handle on top?
Thanks,
Mick
I tell you what, with the skills you got........you would have fit right in with my grandfather and grandmother. I can see my grandfather talking your ear off and trading tips for cooking whole hogs and everything with you.Bob, I wish I could have sat in on one or two of your family Tamale parties too. :wink: Looks fantastic!
Make that "gringos".:wink:Thanks again everyone.
P.S. I'll be sure to warn my wife about the gringo and the freezer!:lol:
