Arnie, I love how loving & respectful you are to your Mom! I’m torn between these two recipes, they both look amazing! But Mama’s recipe wins, just because it’s so simple and immediately reminded me of my pre-retirement office days. Back then, I had the privilege of making three wonderful Mexican American friends over the past 30+ years. They all shared the practicality of their mom, grandma, and other family cooking and life stories over the years. It wasn’t until I retired in 2019 that they finally shared their “secret” recipes, and I’m so grateful for that!
Arnie we made your mom’s enchilada recipe here at our house man they were Good my family loved them so much we made them twice 😂. Tell your mom thank you 😊.
Hello Arnie and mama, just want to let you know I really like your recipes my grandma use to cook Tex-Mex and her tamale’s we’re the best and Arnie I like your enchiladas but I have never tried the way your mom makes them so I’m making them right now since there was enough sauce in the chili beans I dipped them in and rolled with a little onion and cheese and now just waiting for my husband to wake up to put the chili beans on top and put cheese on top cover them and put them in the oven. I love watching you and your mom and your recipes are superb, thanks for sharing. God bless
Arnie Tex you are an amazing dude! I have been following your videos making a bunch of different delicious home style recipes and appreciate the effort you put into creating amazing easy to follow videos! Also I LOVE your mama and her insight on all these amazing foods!!!
I remember my grandmother given me the recipe for enchiladas with the wolf chili over 50 years ago. Thank you for reminding me. I'll be given and showing my granddaughters how to make enchiladas with the wolf and red sauce.
I've never made an authentic Tex-Mex dish, but then again I didn't know how easy it was in this video shows that thanks for the video we're definitely going to try this in my family
You honor you beautiful mom and that’s a rare thing these days. I love Wolf chili enchiladas! They are so good. But I love traditional enchiladas as well. Enjoyed your video!
Hi from Corpus 👋 my mom would make enchiladas with wolf brand chili too bc it was a time saver for her & the can trick also. I always thought this was something only she did 😄
Both recipes look tasty. Thank you for sharing. Mom’s recipe is more fitting to my hurry up cooking style. And Wolf is a staple in my cupboards. That’s right, alway listen to Mom!
My mother always made cheese enchiladas with wolf brand chili so now I do. You are the first I have seen do it this way. Love it!! We also put extra onions on top with the cheese. I’ve never seen enchiladas in a restaurant with chili on them and I really don’t like red sauce. I’m going with your mom for the win!! We are from the Lubbock area and there is a lot of great Mexican food here but nothing topped mom’s enchiladas.
I have to give the win to mama. Her enchilada looked like it was covered in smooth liquid gold lava! Mmmmmmm Mmmmmmmm good! But Arnie, POINTS to you for adding meat AND cheese inside your enchilada! I cook up some ground beef on the side just like the way you do but also use the Wolf on top. You get 2 contrasting tastes and the best of both worlds! Keep up the great work!
Midland Tx here ❤️ I love y’all’s videos, you’ve actually helped me learn how to cook rice, y’all’s way. That’s the only way I will ever cook rice 🫶🏼 Ask your sweet mama bean or no beans in her chili wolf ? 😊
I love this and the wolf chili enchiladas was my favorite growing up, that's how my mom always made them (TEX MEX) and they are delicious but yours look soooo good too! I don't discriminate ever!! YUMMMMY!
I am from Texas living in China for the last 5 years. Unable to go home due to COVID restrictions that canceled air travel. I made mom's enchiladas yesterday and they were so delicious. I am unable to find Wolf brand chili here (there's a hole in the market), but I used a different brand. Same with tortillas so hard to find, but I managed. Gracias a tu mami tan linda!
I'm from south Texas, currently living in Iowa, and my mom would make them like this and she would use sliced cheese. Kraft. They were so good! She would also make them in the traditional way when she had time.
I’m a new sub. I found you when I was looking for a good enchilada recipe using red sauce. I never even thought of using Wolf Brand Chili! Your recipe looks delicious too. I think I’m going to try using your beef recipe and add it to a can of Wolf Brand Chili. The best of both worlds???? I’ll definitely be tenting mine. 😊
I'm 55 and I'm a 6th Generation Texan. Your TexMex is so amazing and spot on! I love the Wolf Enchiladas for a very quick meal. However, I really love the way you make them for huge family gatherings. I'm so glad I found your channel! The love you have for each other is refreshing❤! Are the Pitmaster spices available in grocery stores? *(I'm in East Texas)!
This is exactly how my mother in law taught me to make them using wolf brand chili about 30 years ago. She's from the Robstown area. I stack them sometimes because it's faster than rolling them. I love them...and they taste even better the next day.
I laughed when I saw the title of this video! I’m a gringo who lived in South Texas for 22+ years. My “adopted” Hispanic mom made the BEST enchiladas and I had eaten enchiladas all over Texas. When I finally talked her into teaching me how to make them, they were almost the exact same recipe as your mom’s! The only difference was in addition to the cheddar cheese, she added a little bit of grated Velveeta! She would freeze the Velveeta before she grated it (this was in the ‘80s before they sold bags of grated Velveeta in the stores.) Her family had lived in the Rio Grande Valley since way before Texas became Texas and I thought I was going to get this secret recipe of Mexico for enchiladas. I still make them now almost 40 years later and they’re still my favorite!
I love this channel not only does the food look amazing, the content is wholesome and something I didn't know needed thru out my day I love mom, she adds that good ole family feel to the show
Good stuff Arnie and Mama! Always using your salsa recipes and the flippity-flip technique for grilling. Smoked some chx drums for MLK day w/ WOW and they came out terrific.
I always make them with the traditional sauce like Arnie, have to try it the other way some time. Arnie, if you dip the tortillas in the hot oil like your mom does and then dip them into the sauce right before you fill and roll them they’re not as likely to tear apart. It was a trial and error thing for me LOL
Every time there is a mom recipe, you know its going to be good. Once I heard you say you were going to use a sauce from scratch, I already new you were the winner. I am sure moms recipe is just as good, but I am old school and the only reason I will make a recipe out of a can (which I call a Rachael Ray"s fast meal) is when i am feeling lazy. I will use Las Palmas sauce or El Pato sauce. Top it off with queso fresco, queso cotija. As you say, which ever way you make it , it will turn out to taste great. Thanks for sharing. I will have to see if I can find and taste that wolfy chili, here in California.
Those both look great, I do like a beef enchilada more but the cheese looked really good and I'll try her foil tent as well, makes sense. Y'all are awesome!
@arnietex my grandfather did his enchiladas the same way as your mom. My mom and I have both done it the same way and taught people our way.. I have recently started making my own chilli sauce. One suggestion I would make is to do the tortillas in oil then put a thin layer of chilli sauce on the bottom of the pan and after placing the enchiladas, put some sauce on top with cheese and or onion. It makes rolling them much easier.
Awesome video both looked amazing BUT im going with mom . I loved the video because it also reminded me of when I would cook with my mom and she passed away last year in may at 72. More videos with mom ❤
Amazing twist to enchiladas. I have never seen anyone use canned meat I am from West Texas and the traditional form is always as you did your regular ground beef the authentic sauce and the cheese. Now I understand when I went East in Texas how everything was just transformed differently not sure how it happened but it is a different twist. 👌
Heard what y'all said about Pecos! We're originally from there with family in Alpine! Now I live near San Antonio with my own family! My parents were Guebara's, and we lived right in front of Pecos Elementary on Willow Street! I enjoy your videos!
I love chili. All kinds of chili, even Wendy's chili. I discovered Wolfe brand chili when we got some in our Seattle Dollar Tree store. Now if I find it at Walmart I buy 5 cans at a time. Dennison is still my favorite with Nalleys a close second. Happy to see someone else use chili in their enchiladas
My late Grandma made her enchiladas just like your mom. I'm glad I found your video. It reminds me of my Grandma. See however cut up a block of American cheese and used that in the filling. I'm usually not a fan of American cheese, but it's good in these with the onions and chili .
NO MATTER WHAT, food made by your mother is ALWAYS 1,000,000% better than ANYTHING that anyone else can make. i know that i will NEVER out cook my mom no matter how good i am in the kitchen cause i learned everything from her.
The enchiladas that Arnie makes is how my mother would make them and the chili enchiladas is how they would make them at restaurants and my elementary school. So I love both styles of enchiladas.
Arnie, I loved this video and your mom is precious! I'm gonna make me some Wolf Chili enchiladas! And maybe yours, too! Keep up the great work. Thanks!
Arnie, I love how loving & respectful you are to your Mom! I’m torn between these two recipes, they both look amazing!

I love this guy, and especially when he's with his mom. It's more than food.
100% agree
It’s so wholesome.
Absolutely.
Man, your Mom is so heart warming and endearing. Thanks for sharing her with us along with the recipes! Love them!
Mom's cooking is always the best 👌
Even when it isn't...😅
Arnie we made your mom’s enchilada recipe here at our house man they were Good my family loved them so much we made them twice 😂. Tell your mom thank you 😊.
That is awesome!
Great mom and great son. You two are an inspiration to the world! 😂😢😅
Wolf chili enchiladas! I have never met anyone else that ate that kind. My mom made those all the time. 😊 so glad I found this video.
Food looks great but the love in the family is even better 😭
Hello Arnie and mama, just want to let you know I really like your recipes my grandma use to cook Tex-Mex and her tamale’s we’re the best and Arnie I like your enchiladas but I have never tried the way your mom makes them so I’m making them right now since there was enough sauce in the chili beans I dipped them in and rolled with a little onion and cheese and now just waiting for my husband to wake up to put the chili beans on top and put cheese on top cover them and put them in the oven. I love watching you and your mom and your recipes are superb, thanks for sharing. God bless
Your Mom is so adorable 🥰
You cant beat momma. I also learned the wolf style enchiladas from my mom.😊 Her recipe is a little different but just as good.
Oh I want to watch your video again and learn to make both of your enchilada dinners thank you 🙏 🥰
Arnie Tex you are an amazing dude! I have been following your videos making a bunch of different delicious home style recipes and appreciate the effort you put into creating amazing easy to follow videos! Also I LOVE your mama and her insight on all these amazing foods!!!
Awesome! Thank you!
Whoa! Learned something new today. Our family only use Wolf Chili without beans and I will be trying this recipe. TY
Arnie, I grew up on the style you make and love them, but I gotta go with your Mama’s- love Tejanos and love your Mama!❤
My mom always made the Wolf brand chili cheese enchiladas and I made them for my kids. We love them.
The foil tent is something I’ve never heard of but I have to try! Those both looked so good my mouth was watering!
I made the Wolf chili one's but added ground beef. They were delicious and easy 😋 !!!!❤
I just found your channel, and I love the way you cook. I also love how often you have your mom on.
Yessss! You and your Mom are the best!! The red chili sauce turned out terrific and the enchiladas UMMMMUMMM!!
Those enchiladas look delicious. I use both ground beef AND Wolf Brand chili, kudos to your Mom!!
I woulda never thought to use Wolf Brand for enchiladas. I'm intrigued, gonna have to give your Mom's recipe a try. Love your content.
I remember my grandmother given me the recipe for enchiladas with the wolf chili over 50 years ago. Thank you for reminding me. I'll be given and showing my granddaughters how to make enchiladas with the wolf and red sauce.

You honor you beautiful mom and that’s a rare thing these days. I love Wolf chili enchiladas! They are so good. But I love traditional enchiladas as well. Enjoyed your video!
Thanks so much
I made your mom's recipe tonight and it was a hit! Thanks!
Hi from Corpus 👋 my mom would make enchiladas with wolf brand chili too bc it was a time saver for her & the can trick also. I always thought this was something only she did 😄
I've never even thought of putting chili on enchiladas, but I haven't had a bad recipe from you. Will try both. Thank you Arnie and mom!
Both recipes look tasty. Thank you for sharing. Mom’s recipe is more fitting to my hurry up cooking style. And Wolf is a staple in my cupboards. That’s right, alway listen to Mom!
My mother always made cheese enchiladas with wolf brand chili so now I do. You are the first I have seen do it this way. Love it!! We also put extra onions on top with the cheese.

We are from the Lubbock area and there is a lot of great Mexican food here but nothing topped mom’s enchiladas.
Thanks for watching
Both my parents grew up in NM so I grew up eating the red enchiladas stacked flat with the fried egg on top that she mentioned. It’s soooo good!
Both look great! I've never tried using wolf brand chili on enchiladas. I'll have to do that the next time I make some. Thank you for sharing with us!
I've made them with wolf brand chili for years... quick and delicious...
I just love you Mom on these videos! Both look really good, but I vote for Mom's!
I have to give the win to mama. Her enchilada looked like it was covered in smooth liquid gold lava! Mmmmmmm Mmmmmmmm good! But Arnie, POINTS to you for adding meat AND cheese inside your enchilada! I cook up some ground beef on the side just like the way you do but also use the Wolf on top. You get 2 contrasting tastes and the best of both worlds! Keep up the great work!
Both those enchilada dishes look delicious. Just an impossible choice. I'd try both.
Thank you so much for sharing all of these wonderful recipes. Good stuff bud.
Love seeing la jefa on the videos bro. Dile que ima try the wolf enchiladas really soon!!! Thanks!!! ❤️🔥
Midland Tx here ❤️
I love y’all’s videos, you’ve actually helped me learn how to cook rice, y’all’s way. That’s the only way I will ever cook rice 🫶🏼
Ask your sweet mama bean or no beans in her chili wolf ? 😊
That's some delicious looking enchiladas there! Always enjoy seeing your mom.
Those both look great. Your mom is the best! Looks like you both had fun making these.
I love this and the wolf chili enchiladas was my favorite growing up, that's how my mom always made them (TEX MEX) and they are delicious but yours look soooo good too! I don't discriminate ever!! YUMMMMY!
I am from Texas living in China for the last 5 years. Unable to go home due to COVID restrictions that canceled air travel. I made mom's enchiladas yesterday and they were so delicious. I am unable to find Wolf brand chili here (there's a hole in the market), but I used a different brand. Same with tortillas so hard to find, but I managed. Gracias a tu mami tan linda!
I made your moms recipe and added a can of Hatches enchalada sauce to the Wolf chili and it was da bomb!!!
I'm from south Texas, currently living in Iowa, and my mom would make them like this and she would use sliced cheese. Kraft. They were so good! She would also make them in the traditional way when she had time.
I used wolf brand chili once just on a whim, but I mixed it with some red Chile sauce. It was so good! 😋
What a great idea, we must try that, tnx
when you say red chile sauce do you mean enchilladas sauce/
I really like your videos, but I really enjoy when you have your Mom on here. If I could I'd give you two thumbs up!!
they both look delicious!😋 my mom made enchiladas with wolf brand chili too ... brings back wonderful memories!
Awwwww que bendición poder tener viva a la mama!! Disfruten mucho gracias por compartir con nosotros!
I’m a new sub. I found you when I was looking for a good enchilada recipe using red sauce. I never even thought of using Wolf Brand Chili! Your recipe looks delicious too. I think I’m going to try using your beef recipe and add it to a can of Wolf Brand Chili. The best of both worlds???? I’ll definitely be tenting mine. 😊
you two are awesome!
Your beef enchiladas, with your moms wolf chili on top... Magical!
My San Antonio mom taught me to make the tex-mex roux-based enchilada gravy with Bolner's spice mix.
I added a pinch of salt, garlic powder, cumin and a pinch of chili powder and a cup of water. To the wolf chilli they came out so good 😋😋
I'm 55 and I'm a 6th Generation Texan. Your TexMex is so amazing and spot on! I love the Wolf Enchiladas for a very quick meal. However, I really love the way you make them for huge family gatherings. I'm so glad I found your channel! The love you have for each other is refreshing❤!

Made Arnie Mamas version tonight and the kids love them. Your Mom reminds me of my Mama.❤

Wolf chili and velveta cheese makes the best "texmex" enchiladas and I'm a south Texan😂😂😂
Great video. I miss TexMex recipes from back home. Left Texas 20 years ago and miss the great food there.
Thank you for your videos. I'm not much of a cook, but this looks so easy to make that I will give it a shot.
Looks awesome.. thank you for the video Arnie Tex and Mom
Awesome experience to make a video with your mom!! 👍🏽
I love this channel not only does the food look amazing, the content is wholesome and something I didn't know needed thru out my day I love mom, she adds that good ole family feel to the show

I also use Las Palmas, haven't tried using El Pato, I use that for chili.
Those both look awesome!! I have to try this!!
Those both look great, I do like a beef enchilada more but the cheese looked really good and I'll try her foil tent as well, makes sense.
Y'all are awesome!
I like the red chile ground beef enchiladas the best! You have a beautiful Mom. Thanks...

Where’s the heart button ❤ Such an honor to be able to do this con su Mamá and share it with us.
Awesome video both looked amazing BUT im going with mom . I loved the video because it also reminded me of when I would cook with my mom and she passed away last year in may at 72. More videos with mom ❤

A lottle onion and some cheese inside. Then Wolf chili and cheese on top and that's it? So easy!

Love this show!
your mom is awesome! love the content!😁
your blessed to have her around brother, cherish every moment ❤️ 🙏
I use wolf brand too at times. Sometimes I add mom's salsa to it.
@HitArnieTex sorry I do not have any of that.
My ex use to make killer rabbit enchiladas. It's a interesting process. Kinda freaky at first, pretty good though.
Love your momma! Sweet lady! You're very blessed🙏♥️🙏
I am of the opinion that the ladies know their enchiladas. What a great video. Continued success with your channel. God bless from west Texas.
Thanks so much
Watching momma and you in the kitchen makes me happy 😊 I am excited to make chile sauce and enchiladas now!
Come on Arnie, you should know that mama is always right! Lol
NO MATTER WHAT, food made by your mother is ALWAYS 1,000,000% better than ANYTHING that anyone else can make. i know that i will NEVER out cook my mom no matter how good i am in the kitchen cause i learned everything from her.
I love it when you do videos with your Mom she's a whoot. The food is good too!
I just made your moms style of enchiladas they came out great never had this style before thanks for sharing👍🏼
Wonderful!
Those both looked wonderful. I'm dying for good mexican food
hola, Arnie, mi mamá también hizo sus enchiladas con Wolf Chili
I gotta try this!!! I love Tex mex food!!! 🙌🙌🙌 You just took my cooking to another level!! 💜 Thank you for sharing!!
You guys are wonderful ❤️ love your mama. Listen to your mom 😊
My momma made enchildads with wolf brand chili. I thought that was something she dreamed up herself! Cool video!
Love your vids man, keep it up!
Can't go wrong, I'll try 2 of each
The enchiladas that Arnie makes is how my mother would make them and the chili enchiladas is how they would make them at restaurants and my elementary school. So I love both styles of enchiladas.
Arnie, I loved this video and your mom is precious! I'm gonna make me some Wolf Chili enchiladas! And maybe yours, too! Keep up the great work. Thanks!
Thank you! Will do!
Love your videos and recipes! Reminds me a lot of the food back home in RGV. Thank you and don’t ever stop cooking!!!
