The Deer Depot (Pete Giovenco) in St. Rose makes deer tamales. Very good!
If you want to try making them your self, you need venison ground meat and a Cajun Land tamale kit. Each kit makes three dozen. I've done this several times and they are very good. If you are going to do it, it is very easy, but a little time consuming. Plan to make many dozen at one time as they freeze well.
My buddy Daryl used to get some tamales made down in Houma, but today he had me try some deer burritos he had made by the same people. They were very, very, good. I'll find out the name tomorrow.
Armonds Meats in Slidell,La makes awsome tamalaes. Drop your meat off and they debone and grind it and add 40% pork,vaccum seal it by the dozen for $6.59 doz. Great!!!!!
D&S are pretty good, so is Mickey Browns! Mickey browns also makes the burrito's which are off the food chart! Definitly recommend Mickey Browns in Houma.
Send an email to this email account. Its my mother in law, she has been making tamales for some time now out of her home and does deer tamales as well. You just need to have the meat alread ground up. Her name is Nina. If you are interested here is the email address faucheux4@cox.net
I've been using D&S for a few years now. They do a really good job. I find they are way better than Mickey Browns. By the way, they will make them with wild pork also. I had that done last year and they were good too.
