Egg Boiling People

LMFAO

Well I'm a cover them in water bring to boil and then simmer for 10 min kind of guy.

This did not work at all for me, but it could have been because the eggs were pretty fresh.

[eyeguy 54]

tack in fresh eggs worked fine for me. maybe time to change.

[tacklejunkie]

What would make someone try sticking a pin into an egg in the first place?

Cabin fever

[GIANT1]

who cares best trick iv seen in a long time

[leechlake]

tack didn't work for me either. Poked hole in round end and cooked for 12 minutes, cooled in cold water and then all 8 of em peeled just like always. All of them had a tiny bit of white coming out the poked hole so I obviously poked through.

Will try again.

Eyeguy,

Thanks a million for the tip. I pickled 2 dozen last night and boiled the eggs exactly how you said. Turned out perfect!

The only tip I would add for any of you is that you should not use fresh eggs.

[eyeguy 54]

cool.

just did 6 fresh eggs for a test. bought them 2 days ago.

poked holes

brought water to slow boil and then dropped eggs in for 8 minutes.

took off burner and let sit for 7 minutes.

filled pan 3 times with cold water.

peeled slicker than a harpooned hippo on a banana tree.

if you try it this way and it does not work maybe the twilight zone is in yer kitchen...

[perchking]

worked for me great, now I just need to refill the supply of tabasco and I should be good to go...

thanks

[eyeguy 54]

funny. my bottle is almost gone also.

[delcecchi]

Get a bottle of Siracha. You will never go back to Tabasco. I love the stuff.

Plus it isn't runny and the bottle is way bigger.

[pushbutton]

Got to agree….kind of. Eggs kind of beg for a little more vinegar though and always add some

[minky]

Great post on the egg boiling!

Smoked eggs sounds good.

[Cicada]

I've been steaming the eggs. It takes less energy to use steam from 1 inch of water than to bring a pot to boil and maintain the temperature. Got the idea from Alton Brown video on You Tube. Steam for 12 minutes (large eggs)and they come out perfect.

[Archerysniper]

Thank you it works awesome

[loadmaster]

Whats is the procedure for smoking eggs. Cooked 1st peeled smoked in the shell, brine. Never heard this before. Thanks>>>>later the load

[eyeguy 54]

hard boil, peel, get some papers, smoke... oops... omit step 3

smoke about 40 minutes with cherry wood at 145.

[loadmaster]

Will give a try

[pushbutton]

Have never heard of it before either till Eyeguy started posting about it on this site. Then I actually met Eyeguy…..he is kind of weird…..don't know if it is because all the smoked eggs he eats, but something to think about

[Wensel]

Mouth is watering, I've never smoked eggs, going to give a try today.

What a great way to pass time in this ice box I live in

[eyeguy 54]

heeheehee pb. smokin turkey legs today for the LOW trip tuesday. I have smoked eggs for about 25 years. first saw the idea years ago in the book that comes with the little chief smoker. bought one 30 years ago but thought the egg thing was wierd till I tried it. used to smoke popcorn kernels too. lol. pretty good actually.

[eyeguy 54]

the eggs are really great deviled. a little miracle whip, chili powder and onion powder is a good one to start with and get creative from there. cajon powder and lemon pepper is one of my favorites. or just eat them straight. mmmmm! or in a salad. egg salad on a roll up with red peppers and lettuce. so many ways.... so little time.

[Mike89]

try smoking potatoes, I use butter falvored crisco to coat them. Makes great potatoe salad too with the eggs!!

[eyeguy 54]

I think my wife might commit me if I smoked her taters...

[Mike89]

too funny eyeguy!!!
