Texas Twinkies Egg Rolls Honey

Brisket-stuffed egg rolls, golden and crisp, topped with spicy honey and served fresh for a bold snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 egg roll wrappers
  • 2 cups smoked brisket, finely chopped
  • 225 grams cream cheese, softened
  • 4 jalapeños, diced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese or pepper jack cheese
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • Vegetable oil for deep frying
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 120 millilitres honey
  • 1 jalapeño, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. Combine smoked brisket, cream cheese, shredded cheese, diced jalapeños, garlic, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl until homogenous.
  2. Lay an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface with a corner pointing towards you. Place 2 tablespoons of filling in the centre. Fold the corner over the filling, fold in the sides, and roll tightly. Brush the edge with beaten egg to seal.
  3. Pour oil into a deep pot or fryer and heat to 175°C (350°F).
  4. Fry assembled egg rolls in small batches for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until golden and crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
  5. Combine honey and sliced jalapeño in a small saucepan. Warm gently over low heat for 5 minutes to infuse flavours; do not boil.
  6. Arrange hot egg rolls on a platter. Drizzle with infused spicy honey and serve immediately alongside ranch or barbecue dipping sauce if desired.

Notes

Chop brisket finely for even distribution in each egg roll. Ensure oil is fully heated before frying to achieve a crisp exterior.
