With delia’s not able to take any more orders, our tamale plan is hosed. Where can I go to get quality as good as delias in Austin?

Es un chiste?

Correcto?

Tellez is our favorite, believe they have 2 locations.

Tellez

Also, Rueben's down on Rigsby are the TRUTH...

Make the drive down to the Delia’s in San Antonio. 

If you are going to drive to San Antonio then just hit up Tellez. I have had both Delia's and Tellez.  Both solid but Delia's pork is a little bland for my taste.  Tellez is a much better tamale in my opinion. Got 3 dozen this morning.

Haven’t had Téllez but Delia’s Spicy Red Pork and Spicy Green Pork are top notch in my book

I have only had original pork. Will have to try Delia’s spicy.

Excellent tamales can be ordered for pickup at Del Rio Tortilla Factory on the south side on the way to Poteet.

we order ours cooked & frozen - 15 dozen at a time.

Venison tamales are the best. I need to find another person willing to make them, my lady went commercial. 

Picking some up from Leroy and Lewis today. Barbacoa and red chile, pork and green chile, and turkey mole.

So, wherever you decide to get your tamales, and when for some inexplicable reason there are some leftovers....tamale omelet for Christmas Eve breakfast, duh.

I found the mi tienda Pork tamales far superior to the chicken/cream cheese.

Just wanted to say the grandma in the neighborhood who sold tamales for Xmas eve absolutely crushed it. Ton of flavor and she nailed it on the heat.

Have to give a shoutout to Delia's for their CS.  We had ordered tamales a couple of weeks ago but due to the weather situation down in Texas shipping got FUBAR'd and our shipment was delayed from FedEx.  The tamales ended up being ruined and Delia's on their own accord refunded us for the order.  We'll check back in a few weeks when things settle down and get back to normal.

AB is HUNGRY 

Pos rep

10 dozen were for my brother. 
Ours will last for a year & a half, as Mrs. Brat only steams 6 at a time. Plus we give 3 or 4 dozen to our son.

Amazing.  And now, I'm thinking about putting two tamales in a waffle maker for breakfast.

I made 10 dozen tamales last weekend for our family Christmas, I do this annually.  Not bad for a gringo.

Being in Dallas I tried ordering from Delia's and saw $12 a dozen and said no worries. Then saw the shipping for 3 dozen was going to cost more than rhe tamales and said no way. 

Found this place in Richardson and went and got a dozen and they were good

Thanks for sharing the name of the place in Richardson.

Delia’s is worth it imo.  Of course I’m stuck in tamale hell here in upstate ny.  There is one place nearby that does a good job but they were $20 bucks a dozen a few years ago.
