Tamales Review

First off let me say these were a lot of work, I compare it to a day of making Christmas  Cookies.  Just like making cookies we make mistakes our first time out of the gate.  But we had a TON of fun.  It was an experience I can't wait to have again.  Jimmy's mom and dad came over and helped. The boys did most of the tamale folding while the ladies kept Aiden busy and went for a walk. hahaha.  We did add another bag of chili and made a run for another 5lb bag of Prepared Masa!!!!!  (Hence my mistake...I bought unprepared masa so some of the tamales are real hard) 

The Chili before the meat was added

 Corn Husks drying

This meat mixture is PERFECT!!!

So proud.
