I just had round 2, ate too much again.

Round two is the best!

I eyeball all recipes. No exact measurements. Sorry.

For 18 eggs, I’ll do:

4-5 healthy spoonfuls of mayo
One good spoonful of Dijon mustard
Good bit of black pepper
3 oz pack of prosciutto (crisp it up in a frying pan)
Lots of Mezetta jalapeños diced up. (In jars in the pickle aisle) Depending on your audience, you can mix tamed jalapeños with the hot jalapenos. All of the flavor, without as much heat.

Mix the mayo, mustard, pepper, jalapeños, and egg. Crush the crisped up prosciutto and put half of it in the egg mix.

Pastry bag it (or cut off the corner of a ziplock and use it) into the eggs, then sprinkle the remaining crisped prosciutto on each. Enjoy!

Thank you!!

You're a Vol headed deep behind enemy lines. I recommend espionage: Casually, get the Bama and Auburn fans talking to each about an iron bowl back in the day. Things will progress from there and in just a few minutes they will be frothing it up. Sit back with your drink and enjoy.

Missed the opportunity. Had a great time. Michigan fan also part of the mix. Had fun though.

Ha, that happened here too, when I started doing the Green Egg Mad Max Turkey. We just decided to do a non-traditional "easy" meal (for everyone except the guy charged with tending the roux).

LOL, that does happen. Once I started getting the grill/smoker figured out, the list of things that aren't made in the kitchen keeps growing.

Speaking of the kitchen, do you have a recipe on that gumbo? I've been meaning to try my hand at it.

I probably read 6 different recipes. I used gluten free flour, as my wife has celiac disease. Slow cooked with equal parts bacon grease-Olive oil + flour, about 1 cup each, until chocolate brown. Holy Trinity, garlic + andouille until veggies were translucent. Quart of chicken broth, bottle of GF beer, okra, can of fire roasted tomatoes, Creole seasoning, Bay leaves, a little crab boil spice, thyme, oregano, red pepper, few dashes of worcester... Simmer for an hour. Two pounds of shrimp x 3 minutes, then jar of lump crab and some calamari, 3 more minutes. Stir in fresh parsely and serve with file powder and green onions over rice.

I just realized I forgot to eat deviled eggs yesterday and now there are none.

Oh yeah, fried potato cakes made from leftover mashed potatoes.
