H-E-B Tortillas Shipped to Boston, MA

Boston is a long way from the nearest H-E-B. The grocer has stores only in Texas and Mexico, so anyone here who grew up on its tortillas has to go without or have them shipped. This page is for those people: Texans who moved north for school or work, University of Texas alumni who gather through the Texas Exes Boston Chapter, and Boston home cooks who had a breakfast taco on a trip to Austin or San Antonio and want to make one in their own kitchen. Lonestar buys the same H-E-B tortillas sold in Texas stores and mails them to Massachusetts addresses.

Texas tortillas in Boston

Boston's own food looks to the sea and to old New England kitchens. Clam chowder, lobster rolls and the baked beans behind the nickname Beantown are the dishes the city is known for. A soft Texas flour tortilla is not part of that tradition, and that is why a transplanted Texan may find it hard to replace here.

The city is also one of the country's big college towns. Greater Boston has dozens of colleges and universities, and they bring in students, researchers and hospital staff from across the country. Some of them come from Texas, and University of Texas alumni have their own Texas Exes chapter in Boston. A pack of H-E-B tortillas on hand is a small piece of home during a long semester or residency.

Boston has two things that suit a tortilla well. The first is fish. The Boston Fish Pier has been a working pier since 1914, and haddock and cod are staples at New England fish counters. Either one makes a good fish taco on a small corn tortilla. The second is winter. Boston winters are cold and snowy, and that is the season for a pot of Texas chili or carne guisada on the stove, with warm flour tortillas on the side in place of bread.

Questions from Boston

How long does shipping to Boston take?

UPS Ground delivery to Boston, Massachusetts takes 3–5 business days after the ship date. The next shipment leaves Austin Tuesday, Nov 17; order by Monday, Nov 16, 9 PM CT and it should arrive Fri, Nov 20 – Tue, Nov 24.

Is shipping to Boston free?

How should I store the tortillas when they get to Boston?

H-E-B Bakery tortillas (Flour, Butter and Wheat) ship at room temperature; put them in the fridge when they arrive, where they keep about 2 weeks, or freeze them for up to 3 months. Pantry tortillas are shelf-stable until opened; follow the package directions after that.

Is there an H-E-B store in Boston or anywhere in Massachusetts?

No. H-E-B operates stores only in Texas and Mexico. Lonestar buys the tortillas in Texas and ships them, and we have no information about H-E-B's plans.

Which tortilla works best for fish tacos made with local haddock or cod?

The Street Taco White Corn tortillas are the usual pick because they are small and hold flaky fish well. If you prefer flour, the Fajita Flour tortillas are a good size for a larger fish taco.

Do you also ship to towns around Boston?

Yes. We ship throughout New England, and we have separate pages for Cambridge, Quincy and Lowell.
