Place eggs in a medium-large pot. Fill the pot with water so that the eggs are covered by about an inch of water. Bring water to a boil and let the eggs boil for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and place eggs in cold water adding ice if you have it. Let the eggs cool completely and then peel. See notes for instant pot instructions. *
12 eggs*
Preheat smoker to 180°F with your favorite chips or pellets. Grease rack with pam.
Once eggs are completely cooled peel and place on greased racks in preheated smoker. Smoke for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes remove from smoker and allow to cool. Then cut the eggs in half, separating the white from the yolk. In a medium sized bowl mash all the yolks.
Add mayonnaise, mustard and lemon juice to the mashed yolks and stir until creamy. If the mixture doesn’t look fluffy enough you may need to add more mayo or mustard. Taste it and add more of what it needs. I usually start with adding a little more mayo if I need more volume.
½ cup mayonnaise, 2 tbs mustard*, ½ teaspoon lemon juice
Add the Italian seasoning, garlic powder, dill, salt and pepper to the yolk and stir until fully combined. Refrigerate mixture for at least 20 minutes.
2 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon dill, Pinch of salt, Pinch of pepper
Put a dollop of the yolk mixture into each egg white and sprinkle with paprika and minced chives and enjoy!

Tips and Tricks

*I usually like to hard-boil 14 eggs, that way if some don’t peel nicely, I don’t have to use them.
*How to hard boil eggs in an instant pot?
If using an instant pot to hard boil the eggs, place the eggs on top of the trivet, add 1 cup of water, then set the instant pot to cook on High Pressure for 5 minutes, allow it to naturally release for 5 minutes, and then cool in an ice bath for 5 minutes. Allow eggs to cool completely before smoking them.
*You can use yellow or Dijon mustard- both work great!
*You can dollop the yolk mixture in with a spoon or use a piping bag and a fun tip to make them fancy.
