Gourmet deviled eggs with a sweet and savory mix of bacon, onion, and balsamic vinegar. Always requested and always disappears! Can be made with sugar substitute and light mayonnaise with no discernable taste difference.
What a great recipe... a few changes due to the ingredients I had available in the kitchen: Used Cider Vinegar instead of Balsamic; White Onion vs Red; Garlic Salt vs Celery Salt; Omitted Parsley; topped with a sprinkle of paprika. Fantastic Results! They were a big hit at the dinner party...although, needed to whip up a second batch half-way through the dinner party...everyone wanted more! Hint for preparing ... put stuffing ingredients in a small ziploc bag (sandwich size). Nip a small corner off the bottom and squeeze the stuffing into the egg whites!
Read MoreMade these for yesterday's 4th of July picnic and heard nothing but complaints which I think were justified. I managed to eat two halves, but the bacon turned too chewy in the mayo and the deviled eggs filling itself was way too sweet. I thought it seemed strange putting sugar with balsamic vinegar and it didn't get any better with refrigeration. I'm sorry but I didn't like these at all and was disappointed that I hadn't stuck with the traditional recipe with mayo, mustard and egg yolks. My husband and kids all disliked them.

This a great recipe for gourmet deviled eggs. The additional of the bacon is a wonderful idea. However, I think they would have tasted better without the red onion. It seemed to overpower the other ingredients. REVISION: 5 stars when I halved the amount of red onion and grated it like another reviewer suggested. I have made this recipe 3 times since my original review and found that using quality real bacon bits tastes as good as the pan-fried bacon and takes a lot less time.
We loved these. Husband said they were the best deviled eggs he has ever eaten. That means a lot because deviled eggs are probably one of his favorite foods. One suggestion I have is to grate the onion instead of mincing. Makes it much easier, and you don't have to worry about accidentally biting into a too large chunk of onion. Thanks for the recipe!!! Something extra: Today I turned this recipe into egg salad because my husband had bought some baconnaise and these eggs popped into my mind. Super good! Just added about a tablespoon of dijon to it.
Outstanding. Everyone loved them and wanted the recipe. Comments were "most flavorful deviled eggs they ever had". Was a little leary of the balsamic vinegar but followed the direction anyway - glad I did. Added a little spicy mustard (1 or 2 tsp). Mixture appeared drier than traditonal deviled eggs but that's ok. Will definitely make again.
These were delicious! My husband doesn't normally like deviled eggs, but he liked these. I didn't have the red onion on hand so I substituted a bit of onion powder. I think the red onion would have made them even better.
I normally do not like deviled eggs, but these were absolutely amazing! Took it to a pot luck and it was gobbled up in a matter of minutes. Kind of regret only making 1 1/2 batches. Next time I will triple the recipe... it was that good!
We love deviled eggs and were looking for a little change in the recipe. This was just the ticket! I took the advice of another and grated the onion rather than minced (use much less onion when it is grated). It was just perfect after an hour and the ingredients had a chance to meld together. I took these to a New Years party. They sold out within minutes and I was asked for the recipe. Great job. We will definitely make this again. Thanks for the recipe.

I have made this recipe for a few special events. The consumption of the eggs are always followed by rave reviews and usually with the request for the recipe. Replace your old mayo, egg, salt and pepper recipe with this one!
Hey Stephanie V! You're da man, er, I mean, you're da woman. Finally, seriously good tasting deviled eggs. I made some for a small gathering of friends last night, and I thought I was going to have to call for police protection when I ran out before that party was over. I used smoked, thick-cut bacon, so the eggs were a little chunky, but what a dynamite taste. Thanks for posting the recipe.
A little different than your standard Deviled Eggs, but I loved it and so did the family.
These are absolutely the best deviled eggs I've ever tasted. They are so different from the average recipe. The combination of balsamic vinegar, bacon, and sugar is delicious. I always add a bit more balsamic vinegar than called for to make that flavor stand out more, and also to make them a bit more tangy. It contrasts perfectly with the addition of sugar. Every time I take them to a function, I'm always asked for the recipe. You'll never want to make plain deviled eggs again.
These are good when served right away, but not so good the next day. I will only make these again when I know they will all be eaten.
Excellent ingredients and excellent texture! The bacon is awesome mixed into this. The only thing I'd do differently the second time 'round is to omit the sugar and double the balsamic vinegar. I still can't figure out why'd you want to add sugar to this!
OMG, best deviled eggs I have ever had in my life. Try it and you will not be disappointed.
These were the best. I followed everyone's recommendation and halved the red onion portion and grated it. I didn't have any bacon on hand but it was great even without it. I cant imagine how much better it would be with it. I compensated by adding a tiny pinch of salt. I also used a small sandwich bag to fill the egg whites. It made is so easy and it made those pretty swirls. I topped with a sprinkle of paprika. Next time I will make these using those real bacon bits and someone has mentioned. Thanks for the great recipe!
excellent. you had me at balsamic vinegar and celery salt. yum! made these for a baby shower and they all asked for the recipe. followed it as is but couldn't help adding some hot paprika on top.
FANTASTIC!!! 10 stars dude. I was looking for a unique Deviled Egg recipe and this was a GREAT find! If you don't want it as sweet - add less sugar...If you want it less salty - you know the drill, modify and make it your own. This is a keeper and the deviled eggs I will be bringing to parties. Thank you Stephanie, you rock!
These were AMAZING!! My family is huge deviled egg fans and were very skeptical about a new recipe...but it was a HUGE hit!! They were absolutely delicious!
These are fantastic! We've made a few batches now that have been great sides for lunch one day, and breakfast the next. There is a Hoosier part of me that misses some element of pickle juice in this recipe (easy enough to add), but these are a huge hit in my house.
Received rave reviews and were gone in a flash. The mix didnt seem to completely fill all of the whites, but a couple of my whites fell apart so it still worked ok. Great taste!
Something different from your traditional deviled eggs. My whole family loves these...even my kiddos!
Love these things. I always add more bacon and sprinkle w/ some sweet paprika when finished.
Made these for Easter for the first time. It was a last minute change of recipes, and I hit a home run. I didn't have fresh parsley on hand, so I garnished with very light sprinkle of paprika. Next time, I will be sure I have parsley, because I think it would only add to the deliciousness. The other deviation I made was to follow some of the other suggestions and grate the red onion rather than mince it. And that became my only "issue" with these eggs. First of all, I used our home grown chicken eggs, so the yolks are much more yellow than store bought eggs. Then, when I grated the red onion, it turned into a slurry of greyish looking yuck. In spite of my better judgement, I added that to the bright orange yolks, and the result was just what I should have expected - not a very appetizing color. Next time, and there will be many next times, because everyone loved these, I will mince the onions as the recipe calls for - that will eliminate some the the juicing I got when I grated the the onion. If I decide that I like the grated onion better, I will experiment with a non-red onion. I have been looking for the "perfect" deviled egg recipie, and I think I found it. Thank you for sharing this Stephanie V!
This was my very first attempt at making deviled eggs -- a childhood favorite of both mine and my boyfriend's. These were delicious! Not quite what I was expecting (neither the bacon nor the balsamic prevailed), but very good! Perhaps my tastes were "off" that day, but will definitely try these again!
Made these for a family party yesterday and they were fantastic. Everyone loved them.
I tried this for my Independence Day cook out and I have to say they were so good, I don't think I can go back to my standard deviled eggs ever again.
My boyfriend says these are the best deviled eggs he has ever eaten. They really are delicious!
Tried these today for a 4th of July party. This is the first time I have used sugar in deviled eggs and didn't really like the taste. They were ok but I didn't really like the texture of the bacon in the filling. Am a huge deviled egg fan and also love both vinegar and bacon so was really hoping to love these but didn't.
I made these for the first time for my own house-warming and they were such a big hit that the next three parties I went to served them! I didn't change a thing from the recipe except that I mixed everything in a gallon size ziplock bag, snipped off the corner, and piped it into the eggs directly from there!
Way too much onion & everyone didn't like the balsamic vinegar in with the egg. Just not a good idea...
Amazingly good. My brother-in-law is a professional chef and he thought these were delicious. Make sure to mince the onion and bacon really well to avoid big chunks of either. Best when the flavors have a chance to blend. Will make these again.
Made these for a potluck & they were a hit! I didn't change a thing in the recipe. Best deviled eggs I've ever had! This will be my "go-to" deviled egg recipe from now on!
Holy lord in heaven. Best deviled eggs ever. For an added "something special", sprinkle some smoked paprika on top.
I didn't make any changes to this recipe and found it to be just OK. Would not make again.
Made this for new years eve and loved it. I added a hint more balsamic because I love balsamic. I would surely make this again!
Not your normal run of the mill deviled egg recipe, they are awesome! Very addicting. I used my "special" balsamic for this recipe and I think I used a whole teaspoon+. How can you go wrong with the age old combination of bacon and eggs? I did mince the onion very fine as others have suggested. I'm going to make it again for New Years.
Great recipe! Made no changes. Made for thanksgiving and Christmas and everyone liked them.
Delicious! My guests raved about these eggs. They do have a funny color but just sprinkling the top with sweet paprika fixed that. Only thing is my husband thought it had a bit too much onion, although I didn't. I only wish I had crumbled the bacon into smaller pieces (used fresh smoked bacon). I will make these again but will mince my bacon more and put in just a bit less onion for Hubby
I liked this recipe, and so did most of our guests, but the reason I didn't give it a better review is because they tasted awfully sweet to me. I like the crunch of the onion, and bacon makes everything better, but the celery salt is very strong, and, like i said, just too sweet. I will be making some changes next time.
To cut down on time I put all the ingredients into a food processor. These were not creamy like we are used to, and the family did not care for them. I thought the flavor was good, but definitely needed more mayo and or some mustard
We LOVED these! and they were simple. My husband would like these more with more vinegar, that's how he likes his deviled eggs - and now I know - but they sure disappeared quickly! By sons both loved them too :)
The consistency was perfect. Deviled eggs often fall into too dry or too mayo-ey. The bacon was a very nice touch as well.
I made a half batch, didn't have quite enough mayo, but added in a bit of ranch dressing and it was still fine. I omitted the red onion and parsely, and used regular table salt instead of celery salt. Still very good and I will make again!
Per other reviewers I did halve the red onion but otherwise no changes, and these came out really great! Will definitely make again.
These were fantastic...I made them for a party, and only made two dozen since someone else was preparing the traditional version. These were gone in a flash! I used real bacon bits and re-chopped...
These were good, but I didn't think they were fantastic. For my taste, they were too sweet. However, I took these to church, and others liked them alright. One note: they're better after sitting in the fridge for a few hours. I thought they were terrible right after making them, but ok after they hung out overnight.
The best bang for your buck I've seen in a long time. Easy, perfect treat.
My very favorite deviled eggs! Loved the balsamic vinegar and no mustard! Yummy!
These turned out great! I read the review to grate the red onion but like a crunch so I was just sure to finely mince. The bacon added great flavor,
All I can say is OMG!! these are by far the best deviled eggs ever. I just made them for Easter and they were gone in seconds. One of my guests arrived 1/2 hr late and only got to eat 1. I will be making these again and again. Thanks for the recipe.
They turned out pretty nice. It was a nice twist on one of my favorite dishes. Mine turned out a bit salty, but that was my fault. Overall, a fun recipe.
I thought this was pretty tasty, and I have no complaints. However it didn't blow my mind and I'll probably try something different next time.
These are by far the best deviled eggs I have tasted. I made the recipe and couln't stop eating. I gave some to my neighbor and she said the same. 2 days later, I made them again. My mom said I'll die from a protein overdose LOL. I didn't have any Celery Salt, so I substituted with Garlic Powder and instead of the red Onion, I used green Onions. Very, very good.
These were with out a doubt the best deviled eggs I have ever had!!!!! Made them for husbands work...gone in no time flat. I thought about leaving out the vinegar...so glad I didnt.
Delicious used about 3x the balsamic called for but that was a happy accident. Will make again
Definitely the best deviled eggs ever. Zesty, flavorful, bacony goodness. I followed the recipe exactly, except used turkey bacon and reduced-fat mayo. ('Cuz that's how I roll, dawg.) Oh, and I did add a splash of milk to the yolk mixture to thin it a bit.
This was an interesting take on your traditional deviled eggs. My family said it had a lot of intense flavor...they ate them up!
Best deviled eggs ever! So good. Made them for Easter and everyone loved them.
Made these for a party and the common comment was "The best I've ever tasted". This recipe was a hit.
I was afraid of the combination of vinegar and bacon too, but these were great. I left out the onion and substituted onion powder since that's what I had.
Awesome. I don't even normally like deviled eggs but these are great! I've made them for 2 holidays now and my mom asked for the recipe for this past Christmas. Soooo good!
Delicious and easy to make. Had several people ask for the recipe. You can make a few hours ahead and keep in the refrigerator until you serve. Guys really like the eggs too.
Made a double batch according to the directions for my daughter's birthday party and they were the first thing to go!
Very good. Different. I was worried about the balsamic ving but am so happy i did it! Rave reviews from family.
I think I might be the odd one, but I thought these eggs were just so-so. They seemed to lack a bit of "tang" - I think a more vinegar or some hot sauce would have been a nice addition.
Very good. I used garlic vinegar since I had it on hand, yum. It needed a bit extra salt, otherwise perfect.
These where excellent! I did not have red onion so I used white onion that I chopped in the food processor. I also had to replace the celery salt with table salt. Thanks for a 5 star recipe!
These eggs were a great change-up from the usual deviled eggs. They were a bit sweet for my taste, but the rest of my family loved them as the recipe was written. The next time I will deviate and try it with half of the sugar.
Okay, wow! These were absolutely awesome! The only thing I didn't have was red onion, so I substituted with sweet yellow onion. My husband, who grew up with a mom making deviled eggs almost weekly, had outgrown the taste for deviled eggs, but was absolutely going on and on about these. He said they were the best he'd ever had. I just made them on the spur of the moment when a few eggs cracked while boiling them for my son to take to daycare. It was very simple to make and since we liked it so much, I'll definitely be making these again.
Awesome. They were a hit, everyone loved them- they were gone so quickly half the party didn't get to try them! The flavors came to you individually yet harmoniously. I will make them again!
This is brilliant!! Unbelievably easy to make and an awesome taste. I make it often now.
These eggs keep a 5 star. These are awesome and we can't wait till the holidays. People request my deviled eggs. Wait till they try these! These make my deviled eggs,as great as they are, seem like chopped liver. I didn,t have celery salt so I left it out however these eggs are plenty salty and if I had added celery salt they would have been to salty. I am a salt person too. Also I used double the bacon and I only had 10 eggs. we all ate eggs till we were pop eyed!!! LOL
My friends love deviled eggs but I wanted to try something different then the classic version. They loved it! Everyone kept asking what was in it. I didnt have celery salt but did have celery. So I threw in the veggies and parsley into a food processor. Then combined the rest in a bowl. This made prepping a snap!
They turned out sweet. It could have been the mayo we used though. I might try this again and just omit the sugar, and use a different mayo.
Wonderful!!!! I think the sugar could be cut down, but everything else is perfect. Red onion should definitely be used!
These are delicious! My husband won't touch mayonnaise so I used Miracle Whip and after the fact realized I should have either used a lot less sugar or omitted it altogether. They are still great though and I will be making these again. Bacon makes EVERYTHING better! :)
AWESOME!! I brought them to a party and they quickly disappeared. I made these with white onion instead of red. I left out the celery salt as I felt it was salty enough with the bacon. Great recipe, thanks for sharing.
I made this recipe last weekend for a BBQ. I halved the sugar and forgot the onion altogether but overall I think the recipe was pretty good. I like the fact that it is an untraditional deviled egg recipe. I definitely make this again, hopefully remembering to add the onion this time.
Great recipe. I added a teaspoon of mustard and extra pepper. I used the rest of the parsley as garnish on the tray.
