Because it’s football season and everyone loves deviled eggs, right?! These deviled eggs pack a serious punch of flavor. The horseradish isn’t overwhelming, but just enough to give them a tiny kick.
And then there’s BACON. Ohhhh glorious bacon! 😮 I love ANY kind of deviled eggs. I came up with and have been enjoying this recipe since about 2010 or 2011, but they were originally posted on the blog in 2012.

There’s a little trick to boiling eggs. And it’s really not a “trick” because it’s so darn easy to get them right (I found this out after I mutilated dozens of them!). You’re supposed to put them in a big pot (one layer of eggs), cover them with cool water just over the top of the eggs, and bring them to a boil over medium high heat. Once they START to boil, you immediately remove them from the heat, cover the pot, and let them sit for 15-20 minutes. Simple enough!
If you love deviled eggs as much as I do… be sure to check out these Pimento Cheese Deviled Eggs and Classic Deviled Eggs, too!
