I prepared these tamales for dinner last night. Instructions are pretty simple to follow. I chose the boil method. They are sectioned off in four tamale sealed packages. I was not expecting these tamales to grow while cooking. When I pulled them out of the package they were huge and had all the good grease looking juice that comes with great flavorful tamales. I put two on my plate but I believe one tamale would be enough for most people. The filling did have ingredients you could actually see in them. Taste wise this might be a little bit on the spicier end. I would by again.

Decent, but nothing like a real tamale. I’m a big fan of tamales, and I know people who make amazing ones, so I was a bit skeptical about these. I wasn’t surprised that they didn’t taste as good as some of the others I’ve tried, but I was pretty impressed with the pork tamale flavor. They’re smaller than the ones I’ve had before, and they don’t have as much flavor, but they’re great for frozen tamales. Although the flavor isn’t exactly right, these make for a great meal if you’re not expecting the real deal. All in all, I would eat these again because they’re okay when you don’t want to make them yourself if you aren’t expecting to eat them at home.

These are delicious. They are vacuum sealed in packs of 4 which is excellent for portioning. They heated very well in boiling water by following the directions. They held together very well and have a great mild spicy flavor. My wife says they are too hot for her. I’d liken the spicy to a medium jalapeño. She does agree to them being a delicious Tex-Mex flavor. I made a green Chile sauce to top mine with. The individual tamales are about 1 inch in diameter and about 6 inches long.

I used to get tamales from a friend Eberto. His mom made them every few weeks which was a special treat. She is no longer making them though. Compared to restaurant tamales, these are much better..almost as good as hers. These are easy to heat and clean up. There are three vacuum pack bags of four. Put bag in boiling water for 15-20 minutes. Add sour cream and hot sauce, you are ready to go. Give them a try. Just don’t take the last bag so it will be there for me..

These tamales were quite tasty and extremely easy to prepare. I simply boiled them in the bags, popped them on a platter with salsa and sour cream on the side and dinner was done. My only slight criticism is that they were a little on the greasy side. Other than that they would make for a great meal on a busy night.

I love these tamales! They are vacuumed sealed as individual servings of 4 tamales with a total of 3 sealed packages in one bag. These are these best store bought tamales my husband & I have found. We are hooked on these now. Serve with rice & beans, sliced avocado and you have a meal from heaven.

We love these tamales! Padrino Tamales are bigger than others I’ve tried. They have a tasty thick corn wrap and hearty pork and veggie filling. They also come conveniently wrapped in 3 packages of 4 for a total of 12. Great for just the 2 of us! I opened 1 package and froze the others for another fresh meal later. I will definitely buy again.

First off I really wanted to give these 5 stars, because they were tasty. I took one star off because the filling is just a little too dry and could be a little better quality. It was almost too dry. The masa was good though reminded me of a good Tex-mex tamale. I would recommend these as something to keep in the freezer and eat if you are craving tamales but don’t want to have to cook them.

I was really surprised and pleased with the quality of these tamales. Seasoning is spot on, filling is well proportioned with the masa dough. For extra sauce I used the local grocery store house brand of enchilada sauce. Easy to heat and serve straight from the microwave. Satisfies my need for Mexican food without leaving home.

I couldn't really say that I liked them, they're not bad but they weren't entirely to my liking, they're a good size but they don't have the homemade flavor they say, and the meat looks like ground beef and they break when eaten. I’m sorry but I’ll pass
