How To Make Smoke Eggs

Figuring out How To Make Smoked Eggs has been on my to-do list for a couple of years now! The next time I make these I plan to try out the cold smoker! We made these for Thanksgiving last week and can’t wait to try another smoke on them for Christmas. 

Now I did do a bit of research before making these and came up with my own guesses as to how to go about this! I will say I am going to do a couple of tweaks next time to it.  Below is my smoker I use and also my Bradley Apple smoker pucks as well, I didn’t use the thermometer for this recipe it comes in handy smoking meat!

I made these in my vertical smoker and my pellet grill. They always turn out amazing and full of flavor! You can use mesquite wood chips for flavor or any wood chip.

How To Smoke Hard Boiled Eggs

Decide how many eggs you are making. I was trying to fill the old lady’s deviled eggs tray for Thanksgiving but didn’t fill it. I started at 12 but we broke some and also ate some.

Start a large pot of water boiling.

Once your water is at a rolling boil carefully place in your eggs.  I boil my eggs for 2 minutes per egg in the water.

Remove and put in an ice water bath for ten minutes. The ice bath helps the eggs to cool off but also helps them to be easier to peel vs just cold water.

Start your smoker up to get a good smoke rolling.

Peel your eggs out of the eggshell. Removing the shell will allow for the smoke flavor to come thru.

Spray your smoker rack or grates with a nonstick cooking spray.  Or you can wipe them down with some oil to prevent sticking.

Spread your eggs out on the smoker racks in a single layer. I spaced mine out of a couple of racks to allow plenty of circulation in the smoker as well.

Carefully insert the smoker racks into your smoker once ready to smoke the eggs.

Place eggs in the smoker on the grill grates indirect heat from the heat source.

Allow to smoke for about 30 minutes – 45 minutes till you have the color you want.  The egg whites will turn yellow as they absorb the smoke and the flavoring. The cook time will vary based on how your smoker makes smoke and the temperature.

Remove and enjoy!!

Once you cut them in half you can see the smoke ring on the egg.

I made these into smoked deviled eggs for Thanksgiving, and they were amazing!  (See the recipe -> here)

If you don’t have a smoker your can boil these on the stove and add some liquid smoke. Adding liquid smoke to to any egg recipe you put the hardboiled eggs into will also add a smoky flavor in a jam.
