Four dozen Houston tamales, sorted by the dozen. Mexican beef, spicy chicken, pork, and vegan black bean tamales, all gluten-free and lard-free, are steamed in masa and packed by the dozen in each flavor. Texas Tamale Company started as a Houston pushcart in 1985 and grew by sending “survival kits” of tamales, chili, and queso to Texans far from home. Perfect for a Tex-Mex Thanksgiving spread, a well-stocked freezer, or any displaced Texan. A Lone Star tradition, by the dozen.

The Tastiest Texas Tamales from Houston
The Tastiest Texas Tamales from Houston
While you were busy filling out your Cabbage Patch Doll birth certificates and not solving a Rubik’s cube, Shirley Bailey and her husband were perfecting their gourmet, lard-free tamales in their home kitchen. So popular were their little corn-husk wrapped masa creations that the couple soon outgrew their home operation, selling from a street-side cart on the far west side of Houston to meet demand. Soon after they outgrew that as well, eventually opening up their first local retail location, much to the joy of addicted locals.
We can’t go back in time and relive the ‘80s, but we can stuff our faces with some of the best tamales this side of Madonna’s fishnet tutu. Goldbely favorite: the Tamale Party Pack, which packs in enough for a 20 person fiesta. A totally rad fiesta.
