To make my jalapeno bacon deviled eggs, you will need in addition:
- 3 slices nitrate free bacon
- 2 jalapenos deseeded and thinly sliced
To Make Buffalo Deviled Eggs, you will need:
- Buffalo Sauce my go to version is my Florida Orange Buffalo sauce (ingredients below. Simply melt the butter on the stove and combine with the other two ingredients.
- 1 stick butter
- ⅓ cup Frank’s Red Hot Sauce
- 3 tbsp of my Sunshine State of Mind Rub
- plus
- 8 oz of high quality blue cheese crumbled.
- Chopped green onion for garnish
- After making the deviled eggs drizzle with buffalo sauce and add blue cheese. Chopped green onions make for a nice garnish to contrast the orange. You can also add in a few tsp of the buffalo sauce to the deviled egg yolk mixture. SO YUM!
Instructions
- INSTRUCTIONS
- Bring your eggs to a low boil and then turn the burner off and let sit for another 10 minutes. Rinse in cold water, then crack and peel under the faucet as the water is running over them (this helps get the shell off).
- Next, slice the eggs in half and remove the yolk. Mix the yolk, mayo, relish, mustard, salt and pepper together with a fork until uniform in consistency. Put the mixture in a big ziplock bag and then cut the corner off to create a “pastry bag” so you can pipe the mixture into the yolks easily. Next, add a small piece of bacon to each egg, and then a slice of jalapeno.
