Any idea on how much you need to make a batch and how many in a batch? I have 2 deer harvested over the weekend.

15lbs of meat. Not sure how much that yields. You can call them and ask.

Mickey Brown's are really good. They only accept deboned meat though.
If you go there, also get some of their burritos made.

John Folse tamales
They really aren’t hard to make on your own and I believe much better. And needless to say cheaper.
I’ve gotten plenty from Mickey Brown but I find he has just gotten too big and they just aren’t the same.
Just my 2 cents. Plenty of other recipes online. Good luck.

Ok great. Thanks for the info!

Never had them made, always get them from people that did. You can find his beef tomales in some stores. I buy those when I see them.
Little tip, steam them in a colander in your crawfish water after you shut off the burner, only takes about 5 mins, good God what a game changer.

Mickey Brown is good, but dry meaning no gravy. I get them there or at Perino's on the WB. Perino's are "wet" and more spicy. I like them both but I like the sauce on them at Perino's better.

I brought a hind quarter on the bone 2 weeks ago. 15 lb hind quarter and he said it would yield ~8 lbs deboned. Getting 65 burritos out of it. I’m not much on tamales.
They’re backed up 6-8 weeks.

Mickey Brown’s are good, but I prefer D&S Tamales in Houma.
They have a little more meat in each tamale, and i like their seasoning style better.

Mickey Brown's. Marshall Brown is who you need to talk to. 13lbs of boneless deer meat is what you need for an order of tamales. If you bring it on the bone, his son will debone if. Don't remember what he charges to debone but somewhere around $50.

I enjoyed Mickey Browns tamales, but if you don't eat them often I felt like got freezer burnt because they weren't vacuum sealed. They may have changed cuz this was a few years ago.
I also liked their burritos, but recently brought some meat to LeBlancs in Morganza and I think they are better. I think they make tamales too

I make tamales all the time, figure roughly 2 dozen per pound of cooked meat.
I usually line up the kids and let them add the meat and roll them up so it can really vary a bit.

D & S tamales > Mickey brown's. Get your burritos from Mickey browns. D and s requires 16 lbs of deboned meat. I suggest you split the order with someone, it's a lot of tamales.

There is never too many tamales.

I really liked their tamales in a spicy red sauce. Had a bunch made a few years back and turned them into a dip at just about every get together I'd go to and they were always a hit.

I've had some made a couple times at Deer Depot by Pete Giovenco in St. Rose. They're pretty damn good, would definitely recommend.

Gwen’s tamales in picayune makes really good tamales. Relatively inexpensive as well.
