How to Make Deviled Eggs with Bacon and Jalapenos

First, prepare your hard-boiled eggs. Follow my easy method for the best results: How to Hard Boil Farm Fresh Eggs.
Once cooled, peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Scoop out the egg yolks into a small bowl and set the hollowed egg white halves on a tray.
Mash the yolks with mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, half of the chopped bacon, chopped jalapenos, jalapeno juice (or vinegar), paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth. Add a little more mayo if the mixture is dry.
Spoon the egg yolk mixture into a piping bag or plastic baggie with the corner snipped off and fill each egg half.
Top each egg with the remaining crumbled bacon, chives, and an optional fresh jalapeño slice.

Storage Tips

Store deviled eggs in an airtight container in the fridge.
Line the container with a paper towel or lettuce to absorb excess moisture and keep them from sliding around.
Best eaten within 1–2 days for peak freshness.
If making ahead, store the filling separately and pipe just before serving for best texture.

Recipe Tips & Variations

Not a fan of spice? Use jarred mild jalapenos or reduce the amount.
Love spice? Add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the filling.
No piping bag? Use a Ziploc bag with the corner snipped.
Want it extra creamy? Add a little softened butter to the yolk mixture.
