It cracks me up how many HEB products are sold on Amazon and Ebay. 
The only thing I buy so far are the refried charro beans ($20 for 6 cans) from some dude in Floresville.  
 

The Borracho Shiner Bock beans are my favorite. The gringa I married asked me the other day to get her “some of those Barack-O beans” from HEB. Evidently 44 is in the frijole business now [emoji2357]

    Today I don’t care if my HEB is open, short staffed, or if I can’t buy shit  they make because it’s out of stock.   They always come through when Texans are in need.

These are my go-to, but I do wonder how they have 17 varieties of "sweet" tomatoes.

saw this on FB, has anyone tried them?

I’ve tried these and the cheesesteak ones. Both a bit underwhelming 

*IMO

This tastes exactly like Allsup’s burrito filling, and that is a good thing.

Yeah I've been a fan of those for awhile. Not sure if the empañadas are a new add or I just recently sprung for them.

She's not wrong.  Almost all store bought tomatoes suck.  Grow your own in the summer.

Almost is the key word.

Those Cloud9 tomatoes are as good as anyone can grow.

Except how to not eat too much of it.

HEB doing the shrimp and such boils most weekends these days. Great purchase for shrimp for salads or whatever else plus the potatoes are fantastic when they actually spice the boil

The tomatoes on the vine are good. Taste home grown

Usually when I'm cooking w tomatoes I'm doing canned. And there are some good ones out there. 

Breaking up the tomato circle jerk to once again confirm the brisket queso goes hard as fuck.

I did the choriqueso the other night and it was good. 

All of the bacon-wrapped jalapeno shit that they do I have had success with as well.

Picked these up at HEB yesterday.  After 20 seconds a side in a skillet, they are fantastic.  I like them better than the Mi Tienda ready to cook flour tortillas.

Sonora Style Burrito Tortillas

Haven't seen those specific ones, but Guerreros have been my store made go-to for years.

Is blowing out your sphincter while vomiting worth saving $2.50?

Do we know if those are Mi Tienda oysters, or Hill Country Fare?

When I'm feeling particularly lazy I've been using this as seasoning on taco meat, roasts, chicken, you name it.  Oh yeah, beans.  It's a really clean, all-purpose blend that saves time and tastes great.  I use ~ 2 tablespoons per pound of protein to get the salt right.

Finally tried this last night.

Excellent.

I added a little broth and a little half and half.

image.jpeg.a3e3b17eab96fc45352b067cfcb69b7d.jpeg

broth is the way to go! when I smoked some last weekend I diced up some pickled jalapenos to put in it for more spice.
