Directions

  1. For the dumpling filling: Blend beef cheeks, garlic, ginger, scallion, wine, chile paste, cumin, sesame oil and 1 tablespoon water in a food processor until smooth and set aside.
  2. For the Alabama white BBQ sauce: Whisk together mayo, vinegar, horseradish, cayenne, salt and pepper in a bowl and set aside.
  3. For the dumplings: Fold beef cheek mixture into dumpling wrappers. Heat a pan over medium-high heat with some with vegetable oil. Add dumplings and brown for 1 minute, then add 1/8 cup water and cover. Cook until water evaporates and bottoms of dumplings are crispy, about 5 minutes more. Serve immediately with white BBQ sauce, soy sauce and Chinese chile oil.
