The extended Engel expansion is an algorithm that leads to unique series expansions of q-series. Various examples related to classical partition theorems, including the Rogers-Ramanujan identities, have been given recently. The object of this paper is to show that the new and elegant Rogers-Ramanujan generalization found by Garrett, Ismail, and Stanton also fits into this framework. This not only reveals the existence of an infinite, parameterized family of extended Engel expansions, but
