Very much a rookie at this so trying it out. Did some with beet juice last year and loved them. This time trying this. We will see in 5 days or so if they can be eaten. lol 95 seconds to peel 10 eggs ! lovin the tack.

1 cup vinegar cider

1 cup white vinegar

1/2 cup water

1 TSP canning salt

1/2 TSP tabasco

2 TSP pickling spice

1/4 cup brown sugar

1 medium onion

1/2 red pepper

eyeguy do you boil the brine first ??? sounds yummy

[eyeguy 54]

yes, boil it then simmer 5 minutes. Pour over the stuff in jar and screw cover and lid on. into the fridge and it will seal. Boiled up 10 more for the smoker and peeled them in just over a minute! lol having fun seeing how fast they peel.

[GIANT1]

lol.... not a dumb ? at all. just a brain poof on my part. white vinegar. I changed it. thanks mark.

OK, breakfast taste test is over. The eggs are really good! But if I had to pick between pickled or smoked, me, myself and I would choose the smoked over the pickled so I would need 3.

Hence why you are now doing a pickled in liquid smoke egg?

huh? not doing that. I pickled some smoked eggs last year in beet juice. Not too bad.

[JP Z]

My bad, was looking at your liquid smoke egg recipe.

[eyeguy 54]

after a few of these the smoked eggs win big time. these are good but smoked eggs rock.

I made a jar of pickled eggs last weekend. Its going to be a long couple weeks waiting for them to be ready. In the meantime I need to plug the smoker in and try some smoked. After trying the poking a hole in the egg thing anything with hard boiled eggs is so much less trouble.

[BAIT956]

I have done this several times with good results. If you make pickled fish, after you finish off the fish, put hardboiled eggs in the remaining pickling juice. Leave them alone for as long as it suits your taste. Usually a week or two is enough. Very easy, taste great.

ok

I like the pickled eggs & have been trying to give them some heat with no success. tried several different peppers & nothing. any ideas?

Try this stuff... I've ordered several kinds like Jalapeno, Serrano, Habanero, etc. I think a concentrated powder mixed into your brine will be far more effective than a raw pepper. I know it worked well for my pickled fish.

1) Open Pickled Egg Jar

2) Remove Egg

3) Squirt Sriracha on Egg

4) Take a Bite

5) Repeat 3) and 4) until Egg is Consumed

6) Repeat 2) through 5) until Eggs are Gone

I have been putting in buffalo powder similar to the things in your link.

Beautiful thing it is with the pickled eggs.

[minnesotathorn]

pikestabber

I used your link & ordered 3 different powdered spices. looks like that may do the job.

thanks

[pikestabber]

Good advice, McGurk

@hockey, where do you get buffalo powder? Sounds good!

@minnesotathorn, I think you'll be pleased. When I ordered my powders they even threw in a free sample of something else entirely which I appreciated...now I'm a fan of chile de arbol flakes, as well! I use my chile powders in everything now and I get a consistent heat from very little product. If it's helpful, all the stuff I got was in a Ziploc style bag. I transferred them all to Glad cylinder containers with screw on tops for easier storage then used the ID sticker from the bags and taped them onto the tupperware. Let us know how it works.

PS, if you think a little jalapeno juice on your finger that you accidentally rubbed your eye with is bad...try getting some residual powder in the ol' eyeball! Wash hands well, repeat, repeat after using this stuff!
