These cheeseburger eggrolls have perfectly seasoned ground beef, and melty cheese inside an ultra-crispy shell. They taste like a cheeseburger in egg roll form.
In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Cook onion and ground beef until tender and no longer pink.
Stir in Worchestershire sauce, ketchup, mustard, and hamburger seasoning. Fold in bacon.
Lay out egg roll wrapper in a diamond shape.. Add 3-4 tablespoons of meat mixture to each. Top with cheese.
Dip your fingers in the water, and alongside the outside of the wrapper. Fold the bottom diamond point up towards the top point.
Then, fold the right and left corners inward. Finally, roll tightly in the direction of the top diamond point.
In a deep skillet, heat oil over medium heat to 350 degrees F. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown.
Drain on paper towels.
Combine all sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Enjoy!
Notes
Ingredient Notes and Shopping Tips
Avoid greasy egg rolls by buying lean ground beef. I used 90% lean for this recipe. If you only have 80/20 on hand, be sure to drain before adding to your egg roll wrappers.
Hamburger Seasoning: I am a big fan of McCormick Grill Mates Hamburger Seasoning. You can also make your own.
Bacon: I use microwave bacon to easily cook up a few crispy slices. My preferred brand is Hormel Black Label.
Egg Roll Wrappers: Look for egg roll wrappers in the produce section of your grocery store near the tofu.
Egg Roll Tips and Tricks
Don't overstuff: Use only 3-4 tablespoons of filling each. Overstuffed rolls will be harder to roll, and could break or burst.
Use a Thermometer: Always use a deep-fry thermometer as it can be hard to tell if the oil is at the right temperature.
Don't overcrowd the pan: Fry only a few egg rolls at a time. If you add too many to the pan at once, the temperature of the oil may drop which can make them soggy or greasy.
