MacEggs it's been only 1 1/2 weeks from the first batch and tonight I'm doing my second batch. I haven't even tried the first ones. On the first batch I used the 1/4 cup of vinegar in the water to boil the eggs. That worked but this time I used 1 tsp. of baking soda in the water. It seemed to work better. Pealed 4 doz. eggs with one bad egg. I got the idea for the baking soda from the YouTube video that Mish mentioned.

The local brewery makes a killer hot pickled egg. I don't know how I missed this one. I have been pondering making some for a while. Thanks to CB making some and posting the link to give props. I am now fully inspired and will stop and buy some eggs tonight on the way home tonight. Something else to do with the peppers I grow this year Smile

Thanks for posting this up Mac.

Picked up 4 dozen eggs last night. I'm going to let them sit in the fridge for a week then give it a go.

I couldn't wait. I boiled up a few dozen eggs keeping a handful to make egg salad. I ended up not poking the eggs but I did add a tablespoon of baking soda along with 1/2 cup of vinegar to 2 gallons of water to boiled them. Boiled for 12 min, let sit for 5 min, sat the pot in the sink with cold water running into the pot to cool for 5 min. They peeled easier than any eggs I have ever done. Not a single bad peel in the bunch.

I made hot eggs or they may be just warm Smile

. A few large japs and a hab with some pepper flakes, a ton of fresh garlic, onion, cracked black pepper, salt, and sugar. I'll post pics when I can get around to charging the batteries in my camera. It died when I started peeling.

Alright ....... curiosity was getting the best of me. Shocked

I purchased 5 dozen "large" sized eggs 11 days ago.
Allowed them to sit at room temp for nearly 2 hours.

Pierced each one and into a newly acquired 16 qt SS stock pot.

Topped with water, 1 cup of vinegar, and 1 tbs of baking soda.

Brought up to a good boil, removed from heat, covered for 20 minutes.

Then drained, and cold water and ice added for 20 minutes.

Took no longer than 30 minutes to peel all 60!
I was extremely happy with that ...... and no bad peels! Very Happy

I was even more pleased with that, for sure!

All ready for the "Steak N'eggs" treatment.

I am now going to use this method everytime.
Thanks to everyone for contributing in regards to the "baking soda trick." - It works!

MacEggs, you were right on making more eggs as you wait for the first ones to pickle. I've made 8 doz. now and only have 3 left. They are a big hit and taste great! My last batch was made with fresh eggs they pealed just as good if not better then the older eggs. I don't think letting them age make a big difference. Again thanks for the recipe and idea. YODQ4U
