Tasty and easy to prepare

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.

Verified Purchase

Best Tamales!

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.

Amazing

Amazing tamales! They are huge and have a ton of meat. Meat is so full of favor. If you like bland food these aren’t for you. Even the masa has a flavor of their own. Tamales are packaged in 3 separate packages so they don’t have to be cooked all at the same time.

Good for store bought tamales

These tamales can be boiled in the bag on the stove or placed in the microwave. I boiled in the unopened bag for about 20 minutes which was super easy and convenient. These tamales are good for store bought tamales, the pork is seasoned decently but definitely are not your grandmas homemade tamales made with love.

Good flavor

They tasted just like ones you get from orders from individuals at Christmas time. Had some family members try and they said they were okay maybe a little dry. I steamed them and didn’t make a sauce. I would purchase but make a sauce to go over the top.

Tasty

These tamales were delicious! And they are huge! I really enjoyed these. They are simple to heat, just boil in the bag and they are good to go. The masa to meat ratio was good and the flavor was incredible. One tamale is probably about the size of two normal ones. The texture was good too; nice and consistent- not dry and not soggy. I would recommend these, they are very tasty.

Good and meaty tamales

These are chunky pork tamales. They come in small packs of four inside a boil bag for easy heating. They are pretty full of meat and taste good. Although they taste good they aren't like any other tamale I have eaten before. i would say it tastes more like a meaty burrito but it is still good though. I like that they are made with minimal ingredients. I do enjoy eating them. I tried heating one pack of them on a comal and they were really good and then I boiled the second pack. Either way works and they are good with beans or rice on the side. My kids did think they were a little spicy. Overall, I feel like its a good product to buy just dont expect them to be exactly like the homemade tamales your family member makes. The masa consistency is different.

Fresh & Delicious

Padrino pork Tamales are both fresh and taste delicious. These tamales come in easy-tear packaging, the vacuum-sealed bag keeps it fresh and at just the right moisture level. It is super easy to cook these tamales too, all you need is to thaw them in the fridge for a few hours or use the deforest option on the microwave. After the tamales are deforested microwave for an additional 4-5 minutes and your tamales will be hot and ready! This product will be perfect for anyone who needs a quick snack or even for a party.

Spoiled Southern New Mexico Red Chile tamale lover

Southern New Mexican review will probably be a little harsh. These tamales were very oily coming out of the package. Messy to eat! Really little flavor what so ever . The masa was a fine ground and the filling was good amount. Definitely need some more spice!

Easy to prepare and great taste

Recived the Padrino tamales today via FedX. They arrived in a styraphom cooler with ice. They come 4 tamles to a pack, pack of the for 12 tamales total. We took one pack unopened and place it in boiling water for 20 minutes. Took them out and they were right over 165°. I was skeptical, never had tamales this way. They are good. The masa and meat have a wonderful flavor and the masa to meat ratio is perfect. My son who lives his grandma's tamales gave them an 8.5 out of ten. I like that you can make four at a time. Just enough to get a tamales fix without all the labor. Will be keeping Padrino Tamales in the freezer. Really impressed with the eash of heating up and the flavor.
