I’m going to make beef red chili tamales. And I keep forgetting about my slow cooker for the meat. because I can prepare the meat the day before and get to slapping masa the next day. It would go so quickly and they would free me of time, like I’ve been cooking all day in a short amount of time I plan on making double the batch adding more meat to the crockpot with the red chili so it would’nt be watery.

In reply to nunu. I tried chicken this year, and it was terrible. I will stick to beef and no sugar in the cornbread.

In reply to nunu. I tried this again this year and reduced the sugar to 1TB and it STILL was too sweet. Next time I will leave it out. I tried your beef too but I would stick with my own recipe or try chicken next time instead.

Like the last poster said, I reduced the sugar to 2T but I could have even gone lower. I had no creamed corn and so I roasted some green peppers over a flame and chopped up 200g of them and put them in as a replacement and it came out well. I have my own shredded beef and enchilada sauce recipes that I always use so I used those but I liked this better than standard tamale pie with the crust on top. I will do it again and may also try your sauce and beef recipes sometime.

I made this last night and have a couple comments – first I made it in a 10" cast iron which worked perfect. Overall the recipe worked well, but I'd recommend people consider how sweet they want their cornbread and if it will match the enchilada sauce they're using. I made your recipe for the Mexican shredded beef which was very good, but used a different sauce and my family found the bread was too sweet and the flavor combination disjointed. I think I'd just not add the corn at all if I made it again, which would probably require replacing some of that liquid with more milk or water but I think it would taste better without it. In general I love your recipes, thanks!

I love that your recipes are very tasty but not complicated. Really like it when you give the Nutrition Facts. Thanks for your posts

"Mix the flour, cornmeal, sugar, salt and baking meowed before mixing in the mixture of the oil, milk and egg followed by the corn" Step 1 … meowed is a really weird typo hahaha
