This tasty Blackstone Egg Roll In A Bowl is a fun twist on a classic egg roll, minus the wrapper! You get all the yummy fillings in one big dish, featuring ground meat, cabbage, and tasty spices.
Ingredients & Substitutions
Ground Pork: I love using ground pork for its flavor, but ground chicken or turkey works too. Both are leaner options and just as tasty!
Coleslaw Mix: The convenience of pre-shredded coleslaw mix saves time, but you can also shred your own cabbage and carrots for freshness. Use any variety of cabbage you like!
Mushrooms: Shiitake mushrooms add a unique flavor, but feel free to substitute with button, portobello, or any favored mushrooms you have on hand.
Sriracha Mayo: If you want a milder sauce, try mixing mayonnaise with a bit of ketchup and hot sauce. It’s a great creamy alternative!
How Do You Perfectly Start Cooking the Meat?
Cooking the meat well is key to flavor. Use medium heat to avoid burning. Break the meat into small pieces so it cooks evenly!
- Heat your skillet or griddle and add the ground meat.
- Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes, while regularly breaking up larger chunks.
- Drain any excess fat to keep the dish from becoming greasy.

This delicious dish takes approximately 10 minutes to prepare and about 15 minutes to cook. You’ll have a warm and satisfying meal ready in about 25 minutes total!
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Cook the Meat:
Start by getting a large skillet or heating up your Blackstone griddle over medium heat. Add the ground pork and cook until it’s browned all the way through. Make sure to break it up with a spatula as it cooks. If there’s excess fat, drain it out for a leaner dish.
2. Add Aromatics:
Once the pork is browned, toss in the diced onion and minced garlic. Cook these together for about 2-3 minutes until the onion turns translucent and fragrant. This will add a lovely base flavor!
3. Stir in Vegetables:
Now it’s time to add the coleslaw mix and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Stir everything together and allow it to cook for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender, mixing occasionally to ensure even cooking.
4. Season:
After the vegetables are nice and soft, stir in the soy sauce, sesame oil, minced ginger, and a dash of salt and pepper. Cook for another 1-2 minutes so all the flavors combine beautifully.
5. Garnish:
Remove your pan from the heat and transfer the mixture to a serving bowl. To make it extra delicious, drizzle generously with sriracha mayo and sprinkle with fresh sliced green onions and sesame seeds on top.
6. Serve:
Serve your egg roll in a bowl warm. As you dig in, mix the sauce into the dish to enjoy all the flavors. This meal gives you the tasty goodness of an egg roll without the wrapper! Enjoy your delightful creation!
Can I Use Different Types of Meat?
Absolutely! You can substitute the ground pork with ground chicken or turkey for a leaner option. Just keep in mind that the flavor may differ slightly. Aim for meat that has a bit of fat to keep it juicy and flavorful.
How Can I Adjust the Spice Level?
If you prefer a milder dish, start with less sriracha mayo and add more to taste as you eat. You can also use a milder sauce or even omit it completely. Alternatively, add more if you love heat!
