Most people are intimidated by making tamales, but there is no need to be. The key thing is
plan things out. You need to make sure that you have all ingredients and
equipment before you start. We break the instructions into three parts.
First, you need to gather up the ingredients, and equipment. Second, you
will need to cook the meat that serves as the heart of the hot tamale.
Finally, you need to cook the tamales. We suggest making this a two day
process. Gather the ingredients and cook the meat on day 1, and then
prepare and cook the tamales on day 2. Since the process is somewhat
involved, we suggest making big batches of tamales. In fact we love to
make them in teams. Have a good friend come over, and make a double big
batch and then split them. Tamale making is fun, and for many people,
getting together for a "Tamale Day" has become a tradition. Now, Without Further
