Time 2h5m

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 1/2 lb ground beef
1 1/2 lb ground pork
1 1/2 c corn meal
3/4 c apple juice
1/2 c flour
2 tsp garlic powder
3 tsp chili powder
2 tsp cumin
2 tsp salt
2 tsp cayenne pepper
2 tsp cajun seasoning
60 oz V8 Juice
2 tsp chili powder
2 tsp cumin

  • 3. In a large pot combine the remaining ingredients for tamale ball sauce.
  • 4. Add formed balls to sauce and cook over low heat for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until tamale balls are fully cooked. Tamale balls will increase in size due to the cornmeal and become like a tamale.

These tamale balls are a great way to use up leftover masa. I always make a double batch of masa when I make tamales so that I can make these tamale balls the next day.
