This recipe is pretty much the exact same recipe as my Reuben Egg Roll dish.

I was looking for something simple, kid friendly and ‘no utensils required’ kind of potluck food.

Yes, the egg rolls tend to be a tad it oily, but hey – they tasted awesome!

And boy were they a hit at the Cub Scout picnic!

Ah, the finished product!

Alrighty folks, let’s get ‘rolling’!

Here’s what you need:

olive oil

Gotta Have It Steak Rub

egg roll wraps

provolone cheese

swiss cheese

pastrami

black forest ham

smoked turkey

egg white

And here we go:

Pre-heat your deep fryer or a pot of oil (to cook the egg rolls)

mix about 2 Tbsp olive oil and 1 Tbsp steak rub in a small bowl and set aside

dice all deli meat and set aside

brush a small section (closer to one end) of egg roll wrapper with a bit of the olive oil mixture

stack 1/2 slice of provolone and 1/2 slice of swiss cheese

place 1-2 Tbsp of meat mixture over cheese

fold and roll wrap, brush closing corner with egg white and seal egg roll

deep fry egg roll until golden brown

set cooked egg roll aside to drain and slice in half for a fun finger food!

Ma & Pa’s side note…..

This was definitely a potluck hit!  These egg rolls were the perfect size for little fingers.  Maybe a bit oily, but hey – it’s a potluck at a park!  The boys gobbled them down and frankly, so did Pa.  We had a family friend join us at the potluck and he kept going back for seconds and thirds…..well, you get the picture.  This egg rolls tasted just like a deli sandwich with out the bread!  The steak rub gave it a very tasty garlic/pepper taste.  Leftovers?  Nope, none survived the night!  I’d say that was a success.
