Allen, Eric and Jay Elder, all brothers, took over their father's business 10 years ago, filling the truck up with frozen tamales every single day of the week and serving them hot or frozen.

Customers can choose from spicy or mild pork, chicken, bean or jalapeno and cheese.

Some people have been coming for the tamales since they were kids, so it's no wonder there are always long lines.
