So we ordered some tamales for Christmas, but they don't ship any sauce to go with them. In year's past, we always just put Wolf brand chili on top or eat them plain or with salsa. Does anyone have a good recipe to top the tamales?

Jk. Love me some chili and tamales. I just made a batch of tamales the other day and am about to cook up a tamale omelette for breakfast.

We have a friend whose wife sells them every Thanksgiving. The sauce we got with them this year was amazing. Spicy as hell. I asked about it, and he said she wings it, but it's close to this  My Spanish barely kicked in about 30 seconds in, but damn-it, I'm going to self-translate this shit.  It's like a mix of spicy raw green and spicy creamy green sauce.  As good or better than the sum of its parts.

I'm an idoit. I asked the same question last year, and it was answered in this exact thread.  And to make it even worse, I MADE THE SUGGESTED SAUCE and we liked it. WTF.  It was a busy year.

heb tamales aren't bad at all

Mi Tienda brand is great.

I’m skeptical on HEB, but I’ve been burned a couple times on hand made tamales that aren’t hand made. I guess you could do worse than Mi Tienda.

You definitely can. 

We had a friend order some from a Catholic church in Corpus Christi (they were gonna be in town to pick them up), and we had them get us 2 dozen.  I'll report back on quality Wednesday night.

Two dozen? What is the rest of the family going to eat?
