jeepwm69 7,601 Posted April 21, 2022 Aw I love me some Tamales. Back when I was doing the golf thing with my prior job, the owner of the company loved Doe's Tamales. He was in there eating one night and asked for the owner/manager, and said he wanted to sell those tamales at all of his golf courses in the grill, and asked how to make it happen. https://arktimes.com/rock-candy/2013/10/31/does-and-the-trouble-with-tamales IIRC (been 15 years ago or so) they told him 500 dozen tamales per location (14 of the 18 hold courses), so we had to buy big freezers for the tamales, tamale cookers, and of course, the tamales. They were really good, but not popular with the golfers (who wanted something to grab and go, like a hot dog or a burger). After awhile, the "best by" date passed, and the question arose as to what to do with all the tamales. Me being me, "Nothing wrong with those! I'll eat them! They've been in the freezer, so they haven't spoiled." So I completely filled two freezers with tamales, and ate a whole crapload of Doe's tamales for a couple of years. Tasted great, and they were FREE! We have a local food truck "Pasquale's" who's only open one day a week. He makes what are probably the best I've had. $20/ dozen, and they are lick the bowl good. Italian guy too! http://www.sucktheshuck.com/ 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fishfiles 20,145 Posted May 5, 2022 Had a buddy over this weekend past , he gave me a compliment that was different , he said " everytime I eat here , it can be something I already ate here before , but it is always a little different and it is all good " There is no recipe books or measuring devices around here , " a little of this , a lot of that " My mom use to call this rissoto ( she said riz'sot ) , basically a wet jambalaya / stew , works well with shrimp , lots of onions , green peppers , garlic , celery , Rotel tomatoes and chiles . boneless and for the most part skinless chicken thighs ( a little skin gives it some taste ) and Double D smoked sausage , cream of mushroom condensed soup for cooking , lea and perrins , cahoula sauce , dajour mustard , chile powder , spices , Zatarains jambalaya mix Fried pork loin , cut thin , canola oil , with Romano cheese in dry fish fry ----- so many variations to this , egg and milk marinated and double battered with flour and bread crumb mix is good , 350 degrees on the oil is important for good results Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jeepwm69 7,601 Posted May 5, 2022 Well that's been a long time ago. She died in 2007. But she would always get tamales from someone in Lake Village going back to the 80's and 90's whenever she would go visit. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fishfiles 20,145 Posted May 7, 2022 I picked up these two seasoning last week , Country Bob's is kind of strong , salty and peppery , pretty good , and the Back Yard is sweet , I like it ---- Mother's Day weekend , wife wants MeatBalls and Spaghetti and insist on not spicy ----- so fixing that for her I am going for shrimp , my buddy at the seafood shop has been getting these 16-20 count farm raised shrimp from Ecuador , they are frozen in water as soon as they are caught , no IQF , they are beautiful , very glossy colored , clean , firm , boil and peel great , like to eat local , but it is pre-season right now 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
