Ingredients
- 6 Hard-Boiled Eggs (Fresh Cooked or Store Bought)
- 2 tbsp Mayo
- 1 1/2 tbsp BBQ Sauce
- 3 tbsp Red Onion diced divided
- 3 tsp Cilantro chopped divided
- 2 tbsp Bacon bits divided
- 1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/4 tsp Dry Mustard
- 1/8 tsp Smoked Paprika
Instructions
- Hard boil 6 eggs and peel the white shell off or buy pre-made hardboiled eggs like I did to make this super easy!
- On a cutting board, slice eggs in half lengthwise and remove the egg yolks. They should pop out easily if you flip them over and press on it lightly.
- Add all the egg yolks to a medium bowl and combine with the mayo, BBQ sauce, garlic powder, mustard, and smoked paprika. I used an electric hand mixer for this part.
- Once the mixture is creamy and fully combined, mix in 2 tablespoons of onion, 2 teaspoons of cilantro, and 1 tablespoon of bacon bits. You will use the remaining onion, cilantro, and bacon bits to top the eggs.
- Place mixture into a Ziploc bag or piping bag. (see above instructions on my plastic bag method)
- Place the hard boiled egg whites into a deviled egg tray and gently squeeze mixture into the cavity in a circular motion until it is full and crowning over the egg. If using a round tray or plate, start in the middle so you don’t have to reach over eggs that have already been filled.
- Sprinkle the tops of the eggs with remaining onion, cilantro, bacon bits, and a little extra smoked paprika.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
