# How to Make It:
01 -
In a medium mixing bowl, thoroughly blend softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled turkey bacon, and finely chopped beef brisket until smooth and uniformly mixed.
02 -
Using a spoon, fill each halved and seeded jalapeño pepper with the prepared cheese and meat filling. Pack the mixture gently to ensure it is secure.
03 -
Position a filled jalapeño half near the corner of an egg roll wrapper. Fold in the sides, roll up tightly, and seal the edge with a dab of water to close.
04 -
Pour vegetable oil into a deep skillet or fryer and heat to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy and exercise caution with hot oil.
05 -
Working in batches, gently place the wrapped egg rolls into the hot oil. Fry for 3 to 5 minutes, turning as needed, until crisp and golden brown. Transfer to paper towels to drain excess oil.
06 -
Arrange the fried egg rolls on a platter and drizzle generously with honey before serving.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Brisket can be omitted for a vegetarian option, or replaced with other cooked meats for variation.
02 -
Ensure wrappers are sealed well to prevent filling from spilling during frying.
