UPDATED: This is an authentic Mexican Red Tamale sauce that I also use on enchiladas. It is very rich and only medium spicy but packs a lot of flavor into your Mexican dish. #mymexican

I LOVE to cook and create. I tend to be heavy on spice and the savory dishes and I love making hot sauces and salsas which are now part of our new quick-service Mexican kitchen and taco truck business. Marinading and smoking meats is also one of my favorite hobbies as well.
