Re: tamales
This looks awesome. I love tamales. So what is that, like 2, 3, 4 lbs of meat? How many does it make?
Distilling at 110f and 75 torr.

Re: tamales
4 cups is the magic number for your meat and it makes around 2 dozen
depending on size of husk, and how fat you make them
the chicken can be substituted for brisket/ roast or pork
change the broth to beef
it is easy to do

Re: tamales
Best tamales ive ever made were rabbit. About every fifth year the population gets high enough to make 6-8 dozen at once. Boil them to cook and then take them out and boil down the water you cooked them in to get the broth. Also the worlds best use for wild turkey.
