Tamales are a lovely dish that can take on a number of flavors. Today we are using this as an opportunity to put tasty meat back on the menu. You remember tasty meat? It's a delicious menu item of Crescent Island. Anyways, on the off chance have some tasty meat laying around, these tamales are delicious and can be made in bulk - cuz this recipe make a lot!
