Ingredients
  

  • 10 ounces BBQ Pulled Pork Prepared. Can be purchased in the grocery store.
  • 25 wonton wrappers
  • Small bowl of water
  • 1 quart Canola Oil For deep frying

Instructions
 

  • Drop a teaspoon of prepared Pulled Pork BBQ into the center of a wonton. You want to be sure to not put in too much pork so that the wonton will be hard to seal.
  • Wet edges, fold into a triangle shape and press the edges to seal. You want to be sure to seal it well so that it doesn't open up in the deep fryer.
  • Twist to form a crescent-like shape.
  • Add a quart of oil to a deep fryer and heat to 325 degrees. Carefully lower batches of the wontons (2-3 at a time) into the oil and deep fry for 2-3 minutes until the wrapper is golden brown.
  • Press down to seal and fold into a crescent shape.
  • Deep fry for 2-3 minutes until the wrapper is golden brown.
  • Remove wontons that are done and place them on paper towels to absorb some of the oil.

Notes

  • Serve these with a sweet and sour dipping sauce or barbecue sauce for an additional hit of flavor.
  • One tip I have for making party prep easier and cleaning up faster is to use disposable plates and cups. There are lots of great options out there, some are even compostable!
  • You can reheat any leftovers in the oven for 5-8 minutes.
