Redneck Egg Rolls

If you want the amazing tastes of a summer BBQ in one crispy delicious shell then look no further than these redneck egg rolls! These egg rolls use barbecued pulled pork and coleslaw to make the perfect summer meal or appetizer! Great way to use up leftover barbecued pork or a good excuse to make or buy some! They are super delicious!

Like I said before, you can use leftover pulled pork or you can do like I do sometimes and buy the pre-cooked smoked pulled pork in the deli section. Costco sells an amazing one that is Kirkland brand! If you want to make the pork from scratch then you can smoke or slow cook the pork. Just season with a healthy coat of salt, sprinkle of pepper and either before or after cooking add your favorite barbecue sauce to the roast. You want to cook your pork until it’s fork tender or on low for about 8-9 hours.

Here is the precooked smoked pork I like to buy, costs around $11 for 2 pounds.

For the coleslaw I have included a recipe to make your own from scratch but you can also use bagged coleslaw mix and add the green onion and dressing to it.

These can also be baked, air fried or fried in oil. Whatever way I want to cook them will work fine. I will include directions for each way below the recipe.
