Becerra Brand Tamales true to our Mexican-Tejano Heritage
Becerra Brand of Tex-Mex Tamales began in 2012 in University Park, Texas; to continue the legacy of our Tejano heritage. In 1963, Bacilio & Candida Becerra originated Becerra’s Tortillas in Bryan, and shortly thereafter, EL Zarape Mexican Restaurant in College Station, Texas, just east of the Texas A&M University campus. At that same time in Bryan, their micro-production facility was producing tamale & corn tortillas through the process of raw corn (nixtamalization), nixtamalized masa, and at that time, pork head tamales.
In 2001, after a devastating fire, the Becerras decided to close their doors. Then in 2011, it was time to resurrect the business after perfecting a few recipes reminiscent of the family's recipes. During the first 2 years, Becerras garnered 1st and 3rd place Judge's Selection in Texas' largest hot sauce festival - The Austin Chronicle's Hot Sauce Festival. Becerras is also an anchor vendor at The Saint Michael's Market in University Park, Dallas offering products directly to consumers where they have participated for 12 years. Currently producing three bottled salsas: a signature SERRANO BOSS SAUCE and 7 different handmade small-batch tamales. Becerra Brand Tamales prides itself on being a high-quality small-batch operation with our primary focus on quality with high-quality cuts of beef, poultry, pork, vegetables, and regional Tex-Mex seasonings. Becerra Brand Tamales strives to provide you with the absolute best in every tamale and salsa we produce. Once you try Becerra's handmade products you’ll experience why Becerra Brand Tamales will be your new favorite.

Reheating Becerra Brand Tamales
What we recommend: Using stovetop insert, steam pot, Insta-Pot or equivalent, fill the pot with 2 to 3 cups of water, 2 to 3 tablespoons of your favorite cooking oil, the spice pack provided. Place the frozen Reheat'n Eat © or Steam'n Eat © tamales in the basket or insert. Fire up the stove to bring the water to a boil to create steam. Once the water is steaming. In a separate small stockpot, combine 2 cups of water and 1 tablespoon of cooking oil of your choice and bring to a medium heat temperature while the steam pot is heating up. Use this water to ladle over the tamales while they are steaming. The corn husk will absorb the water and keep the masa soft. The time needed to reheat will vary, use your best judgment. Check them often to reach the desired readiness. Remove and enjoy with your favorite Becerra Brand Tex-Mex Salsa & cold beverage!
