What are your tamales of choice in Houston?
Actually not my favorite food but got outvoted for a Christmas treat.

Find an older Hispanic lady in your hood and follow her home.
We used to have a guy that came to our office once a month with "road kill tamales" (his words) but I haven't seen him in a long time. So this year I ordered some brisket tamales from Feges to pick up on the 24th.

The 900 year-old Yoda-looking Hispanic woman who hits my local sells the best I've had. Green sauce out of a Gatorade bottle of course.
Bless that woman.

Hard to beet the convenience of the HEB spicy pork.

Momma's Tamales in Bellaire
HOT Tamales off of 2351.
There are none. We brought some back from San Antonio when we went there for Thanksgiving.
Alamo does a good job with the handmade stuff.
There's a guy who sells every Friday at my barber shop who's got the best I think I've ever had but he's hard to catch.

Alamo is my old faithful. Wonder if that dude who used to sell at West Alabama Ice House still comes around; those hit the hardest.
Granny's Tamales out of Humble is pretty solid.

I know people in Memorial who got up early the day before Xmas to get in line at Alamo.

Tamales! Tamales! Tamales!
AKSHUALLY he said it four times. Those things were great, as was the green sauce from the Gatorade bottle.
I once caught him twice in one night. Once at West Alabama, and then again at Cecil's.
Actually I like the venison Tamales Midway makes for me when I get a deer processed there.

I'm old, but there was a guy that would roll through the Little Woodrows by Mission Burrito in the late 90s. Carried a large paint bucket full of tameles. And they were great. Maybe same dude.
Today I get my fix at Balderas tamale factory on Jones road. Near 1960 and Jones. Legit.
