Smoked deviled eggs.....

I love me some pickled eggs! Got a hanker'n to make some. Dad's old recipe was similar to Mallard's above.

Mowin, not to hi-jack the post, but here's a picked egg recipe that I use! Even though we have a residential fridge in our fiver I do pay attention to space. I bought a jar of pickles that came in a short square plastic jar with a large mouth (we Canadians love to recycle), miracle whip comes in it as well and it really sits well in the fridge and holds a respectable amount of eggs!

Mallard's Pickled Eggs

24 large hard-cooked eggs, peeled
2 cups (250 mL)white vinegar
1/2 cup (250 mL)water
2 tbsp (15 mL)granulated sugar
4 tsp (10 mL)pickling spice
2 tsp (5 mL)salt
a nice bunch of trimmed dillweed
a few tsp of pickled jalapenos
one head of garlic peeled and chopped

-Combine vinegar, water, sugar, pickling spices and
salt in small saucepan.
-Bring to boil, stirring frequently, until sugar dissolves. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 10 minutes, let cool
-using a skewer pierce the egg through the middle then from top to bottom to accelerate the pickle absorption. Place eggs in the jar layering the dillweed, peppers, garlic and spices, pour
liquid over eggs into jar, cover jar with lid. Refrigerate for at least a week before munching however the longer the better also if you like pickled sausages this works just as good just find some skinless all-beef hot-dogs, they fit perfectly standing up in the jar! all you need then is some cold beer and you got a great snack!!

Sounds like a cooking plan! I enjoy finding my way through a new technique and anticipate your next thread on the eggs:C.

Luverly looking!

Did you pickle or brine the eggs as well?

There cold smoked. No heat. I tried once w heat and they were like a rubber ball. Lol. I used a a-maze-n pellet smoker with maple pellets, its on the bottom rack. I smoked them for 1 1/2 hrs. They do take on a smoke color, and if u want the color even, turn them 1/2 way thru.

Those are peeled eggs in the box? I've hot smoked the eggs in the shell but haven't tried this yet. Can you give time and temps?
