Smoked Eggs – Treat

Ingredients:

6 large eggs
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon liquid smoke
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Directions:

First, hard boil the eggs. Place the eggs in a pan and cover them with water, then bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer for 10-12 minutes. Remove eggs from the pan and immediately place them in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Allow to cool completely.
In a separate bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, liquid smoke, garlic powder, and black pepper until well combined.
Peel the hard boiled eggs and place them in a ziplock bag with the marinade. Seal the bag and gently shake to ensure all the eggs are well coated. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for maximum flavor.
Preheat your smoker to 225°F. Remove the eggs from the marinade and place them on a smoking rack or directly on the smoker grates.
Smoke the eggs for 1-2 hours, depending on how strong you want the smoke flavor to be. Remove the eggs from the smoker and serve immediately or store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Verdict:

These smoked eggs are a unique and flavorful treat that will impress your guests and make for a fun addition to any brunch or party spread. The combination of soy sauce and honey gives them a slightly sweet and savory flavor that pairs perfectly with the smoky undertones. They are also a great make ahead option since they can be prepped the night before.
