Pork tamales in red salsa
from $15Slow-cooked pork in a red chile salsa, wrapped in our gluten-free masa. A little kick, big filling.
Menu & prices
A short menu, made properly.
Pork in red salsa, chicken in green salsa, and burritos for lunch orders. Every tamal is made from scratch the morning it goes out, with gluten-free masa and 100% natural ingredients. Prices are simple: by the plate, the half dozen, or the dozen.
Chicken tamales in green salsa
from $15Chicken breast, no fat, in a bright tomatillo salsa verde. Clean, moist and packed with meat.
Burritos (chicken or pork)
AskA generous lunch burrito with the same slow-cooked fillings. A favorite for office deliveries alongside the tamales.
Tamales are gluten-free by recipe (corn masa, no wheat). Burritos use flour tortillas and are prepared in the same kitchen, so guests with celiac disease should tell us when ordering. Prices shown are our delivery-menu prices; catering orders are quoted per event.

Inside the husk
What you are actually eating
The masa. Fresh corn masa, gluten-free, seasoned and whipped until it is light enough to steam tender. Not too much of it: reviewers notice the “amazing (not too much) masa” because the filling is the point.
Pork in red salsa. Slow-cooked pork pulled into a red chile salsa with a little kick. Our most-ordered tamal and the one people fight over at holiday tables.
Chicken in green salsa. Chicken breast, no fat, in a bright tomatillo salsa verde. Clean, moist, and mild enough for kids and cautious eaters.
Burritos. The same slow-cooked fillings in a flour tortilla, sized for lunch. Offices love mixing a few in with the tamales.

Menu questions
Good to know
How big are the tamales?
Big. Reviewers use the words “huge” and “well filled”, and they mean it. Two tamales are a full lunch for most adults; three is a hearty dinner portion. See how many tamales per person for party math.
Are the tamales gluten-free?
Yes, by recipe: the masa is corn, with no wheat. We are not a certified gluten-free facility, and burritos with flour tortillas are made in the same kitchen, so please tell us about celiac guests when you order and we will handle them carefully.
Are the tamales spicy?
The pork in red salsa has a gentle kick that most people describe as “just right”. The chicken in green salsa is mild. For a mixed crowd we usually suggest half and half, with extra salsa on the side for people who want more heat.
Can I mix pork and chicken in a dozen?
For catering orders, yes, and we label them clearly. On DoorDash the menu lists each filling separately, so order a half dozen of each if you want both.
Do you make sweet, vegetarian or other fillings?
Our menu is pork and chicken. For large orders, ask in the quote form and Maggie will tell you what she can do for your event.
How do I reheat leftovers?
Steam them, husk on, for a few minutes, or wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave. Full instructions are in how to reheat tamales.
Feeding more than a few people?
Send the date and the headcount and Maggie will price a mixed order of pork and chicken, with delivery planned around your event.
