# Instructions:
01 -
Fire up your grill to 350°F for direct cooking. Place a cold skillet on the grill and cook the bacon slices until they're perfectly crispy and golden brown, about 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through. Let them cool for 10 minutes before chopping them up.
02 -
In the same hot skillet, brown the ground beef with salt, pepper, and garlic powder until there's no pink left, about 6-8 minutes, stirring often. Pop it in a bowl and chill in the fridge for 15 minutes.
03 -
In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar, cooled ground beef, chopped bacon, diced jalapeños, and red onions. Mix everything together until well combined.
04 -
Lay out each egg roll wrapper and place a generous scoop of the jalapeño popper mixture in the center. Wet the edges with water, then roll and fold into egg rolls. Heat your frying oil to 400°F and fry the rolls for 1-2 minutes per side until they're golden brown and crispy.

Serve these crispy rolls hot with BBQ sauce, sweet chili sauce, or mix both sauces together for an amazing dip.
