PP Wontons and Veggie Stir Fry

Two varieties of PP wonton. One with slaw and pickle, one with Mac & Cheese and pickle. Kept those warm in the oven while going lower in the XL for the stir fry. 











My my much better half went with Jim's Own Sauce which was NCBB swag (really good!) and I went with Maurice's Southern Gold Hickory BBQ sauce (compliments of @ northGAcock-delicious).  Made for a good meal. Thanks for lookin.

    Yesssss!!!!  That looks amazing. :flushed: If you wanna try something really good for the dipping sauce, mix that mustard based sauce right there with some Asian sweet chili sauce.  50/50.  It's the perfect fusion of Asian for the wonton and mustard based Bbq for the pulled pork.  Sounds strange, but it'll knock your socks off. I got good feedback at last year's GA mountain eggfest with it.

    We liked the wontons with the slaw better because the flavor came through more.  Next time I'd add some fresh cheddar to the Mac n cheese version.  More along the lines of your pimento cheese version.  Thanks brother!

    Looks good! 

    I never deep fry because of the smell that hangs around the house.  We're still new with the BGE, so I don't know anything about deep frying with it.  I have questions!

    I thought the lid is supposed to be down when cooking with the egg.  But frying can go from golden to burnt really fast.  Do you close the lid, or just keep it open?  And I suspect you are more concerned with the temp of the oil, rather than the temp inside the egg, yes?

    Sorry if these are dumb/obvious questions.  I haven't made tempura or wontons in years, but might be fixing them again soon!

    Your questions are good.  I would close the dome when I didn't need it open to help hold the temp.  And yes, oil temp as you know is the key.  Egg dome temp on this cook was 400.  Oil temp around 375.

    Egg dome open or closed all depends on the cook.  For the majority of cooks you want the dome closed as much as possible.  Some cooks are dome open such as Picanha.

    Give it a go, it's not challenging.  And post your cook.  Good luck.  @mrs_story

    Thanks so much for the speedy response!  When I told my daughter that I saw pics of someone frying on their egg, she hollered something about doughnuts.  :-)
