These Smoked Deviled Eggs are a show stopping twist on an old classic! Perfectly flavorful and the perfect appetizer to accompany any meal!
First off, I owe you all a HUGE apology! I have been sitting on this recipe for over one month now and THAT is just plain rude. This recipe is one that the world NEEDS to have in their lives. As in, this appetizer (or snack, I don’t judge), is a total game changer!
Long gone are normal deviled eggs. Not only are these PACKED with flavor, but the crowds LOVE them! I don’t know if its the bacon on top (bacon is life, am I right?), or if its the hint of smoke flavor the smoker adds to it! Nonetheless, prepare to be addicted to these tasty treasures!
For Christmas Eve each year, my parents host. My mom makes a beef tenderloin and puts together an incredible spread. We literally eat the entire day, play games, drink, and open presents!
This year, my hubby wanted to make an appetizer to add to the day and decided to prepare a dozen deviled eggs. He wanted to add a new twist to them, hence why the smoker came into play.
He hard boiled the eggs in my Instant Pot, but from there, he took the reigns of these and the end result was incredible!
I must have had about 3-4 myself, and I even saw my nephew with 2 in his hand and going back for seconds! Impressive, right?!
To add a little kick, he used jalapeno bacon on top! If you really want to kick it up a notch, sprinkle some Slap Ya Mama on top or some of our favorite Chupacabra seasoning!
With the Super Bowl coming up, I highly encourage you all to try these! No one will be watching the game because they will all be too busy devouring these, haha!
