As some of you know, I absolutely love trying new things, especially food. I don’t know what it is but I love trying different regional foods, and my family try finding interesting places to eat when we travel. Unfortunately, sometimes at home finding interesting foods is a bit challenging. Recently though, we were introduced to a company that was excited for us to try something completely new to us – tamales! When Tucson Tamles asked if we would be willing to try a variety of their tamales, we couldn’t wait for our shipment to arrive!
Tucson Tamales: Who Are They?
Looking for a delicious meal that the whole family will enjoy? If so, we think you will love Tucson Tamales. Their story began when Todd Martin fell in love with making tamales with the family of his future wife – Sherry. In 2008, the couple opened Tucson Tamale to create delicious food that uses traditional, premium ingredients to create fun flavor combinations. As well, every tamale is handmade with love from their Tucson kitchen, allowing you to enjoy their wonderful tamales in one of their local restaurants or your own kitchen through home delivery or a store near you.
Tucson Tamales: Our Thoughts
I will freely admit, as someone who had never had a tamale in her life, I had no clue what to expect. Embarrassing as it is to admit, we had to get a Youtube video to make sure we were supposed to unwrap the tamale (you are) and so we didn’t accidentally peel too much off. Once we got into the tamales themselves, I have to admit, they were so good! What impressed me the most is the right mix of spices, especially in the vegetarian tamales. For me, anything to make meatless days easier is a major score, and we found them to be extremely filling. Honestly, I can’t wait to order more since they are great for a different take on a stay-at-home date night, or as a fun gift for someone special during the holidays. After trying them, it is easy to see why they are loved by Alton Brown and Rachel Ray!
Tucson Tamales: Where to Purchase

I absolutely love tamales!! I have never tried making them myself before though. This sounds like a very flavorful version, I can’t wait to try it! 🙂 Thanks for sharing!
I don’t believe I have ever eaten one of these, but they look delicious! I wonder if there is a place around here to try one.

These sound delicious. I think my family would like the red chipotle beef ones the most.
I would absolutely love to try the Green Chile & Cheese ‘The Green Corn Tamale’…man these look so good! I love the fact that they deliver as well. So many great options available.
I love tamales. I should order from places that make multiple varieties, bc after one failed attempt at making them, I know my skill level ;(
These look so yummy. I might have to order some, as a surprise for my hubby.
I have never tasted a tamale. I don’t like anything with a corn based wrap.I would try one as long as it had meat in it.

I have never tried tamales before! These look really good and I will have to try them for dinner sometime soon.
My mom used to make tamales for my brother and I when we were kids. I have not had them in years. These look really high quality.
I love your photos – these tamales look so appealing! And I’d never heard of Tucson Tamales before 🙂 Definitely want to try!
Yum, this looks delicious! I had tamales for the first time a few months ago and I loved them.
I love tamales. Plus, these look especially yummy.
These look and sound absolutely amazing! Tamales are my favorite mexican food and the one I always order in restaurants. I have always wanted to try to make them, but they are supposed to be time consuming so I never get that brave.
Those look delicious! I’ve never made tamales before.

I love tamales. I never heard of Tucson tamales thanks for all the information, they look yummy.
I really like mexican food and tex-mex food, eat it all the time but I’ve never had a tamale either. I think the looks of them always turned me away, but I guess I could give them a try…particularly if I don’t have to make them.
These look delicious!
I need to check these out, they sound so good. Tamales are my favorite!
I love tamales. We always have them around Christmas time. I want to try all their green chile ones…my fav. Interesting to see they have a vegetarian option too.
I love freshly made tamales. I’ve never had these; but they look good. So, I’ll have to see if they are sold in stores by me.
I have never had these but will try anything once. They sound good.
Never heard of this food till now..
YUMMO!! I LOVE tamales!! These look fantastic and I seriously had no idea this company existed!
