Crispy Jalapeno Rolls (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Jalapeño Mixture

01 - 2 teaspoons garlic powder
02 - 1 block of soft cream cheese
03 - 8 oz beef, ground
04 - 6 slices of crispy cooked bacon
05 - 1 cup of sharp shredded cheddar
06 - 1 medium diced jalapeño
07 - 2 tablespoons chopped red onion
08 - 2 teaspoons pepper, freshly ground
09 - 2 teaspoons kosher salt

→ Roll Ingredients

10 - 6-8 wrappers for egg rolls
11 - Oil for frying your rolls
12 - ½ cup of thick sweet chili sauce
13 - ½ cup of sticky BBQ sauce

# Instructions:

01 - Set your grill to 350°F for direct heat. Toss a cold skillet onto the grill, lay the bacon in, and cook until it’s nice and crispy—about 8-10 minutes, flipping midway. Let it sit for 10 minutes, then chop it into small bits.
02 - Using that hot skillet, crumble the ground beef and sprinkle with kosher salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Keep stirring for 6-8 minutes until fully browned. Transfer into a bowl and let it cool in the fridge for at least 15 minutes.
03 - In a big mixing bowl, throw in the cream cheese, chopped bacon, chilled beef, diced jalapeños, diced onions, and shredded cheddar. Stir it all up until smooth and evenly mixed.
04 - On a flat surface, lay each egg roll wrapper and drop a hearty spoonful of filling in the middle. Dab the wrapper’s edges with water, then roll and close securely. Heat your frying oil to 400°F, and fry each side for 1-2 minutes until golden and crisp.
05 - Serve these crunchy snacks while hot with BBQ sauce, sweet chili sauce, or mix the two for an awesome dip combo.

# Notes:

01 - These savory rolls combine crispy Asian-style wrapping with the bold, creamy flavors of jalapeño poppers. Perfect for gatherings, game nights, or anytime snacking.
