Smoked Deviled Eggs with Bacon
The summer party that we went to did not disappoint with the food at all. Pulled pork, mac and cheese, all the sides and desserts you can think of, and my contribution…this recipe for Smoked Deviled Eggs with Bacon 🙂
Happy Fourth of July, everyone!
The day we celebrate our freedom by setting off fireworks and eating as much as we possibly can!
How to make Smoked Deviled Eggs with Bacon
Smoked Deviled Eggs with Bacon start just as any deviled eggs, boiling a dozen eggs for 10 minutes and then letting them sit in the water for 45 minutes.
Peeling them when they are still slightly warm is the best way I have found for stress-free peeling.
I do add a few ice cubes to cool the water slightly, tap each egg on the counter and start peeling.
Two of mine out of the dozen turned out less than perfect, but hey…that’s not bad, right?!
Ready for the smoker…
Once they are peeled I put them on our smoker set to 180 degrees for 45 minutes.
As you can see from this gorgeous color, they took in quite a bit of the smoke!
.
While the eggs were smoking I cooked a few slices of bacon.
I cut the bacon with kitchen scissors right into the skillet over medium heat.
Once the eggs are removed from the smoker, slice each in half and separate the yolks and whites.
I keep my smoked deviled eggs very simple, which is pretty much the way my mom makes her deviled eggs.
Into a bowl with the yolks add mayo, yellow mustard, Tabasco, kosher salt, and pepper.
Mix them with a hand mixer for about one minute.
Then mix in the cooked bacon with a spoon.
No fancy piping here in my kitchen…just use a spoon to add some to each egg white and a little more bacon sprinkled over top.
Perfection is overrated 🙂
