Cooking Instructions
  1. Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil. Carefully lower the eggs into the boiling water and boil for 15 minutes. After boiling, run cold water over the eggs and peel immediately.
  2. Slice the cooked eggs in half lengthwise and remove the yolks into a mixing bowl.
  3. Mix the egg yolks with mayo, dijon mustard, celery salt, sugar, and sweet relish until smooth.
  4. Transfer the egg mixture into a piping bag or zip-top bag. Pipe or spoon the mixture back into the egg whites. Sprinkle with paprika and Cajun seasoning, and garnish with Jalape?o Bacon Jam.
  5. For the Jalape?o Bacon Jam: Cook bacon in a cold nonstick skillet over medium heat for 7-10 minutes until foamy. Remove bacon and drain on paper towels, leaving 1 tablespoon of grease in the pan.
  6. In the same skillet, saut? onions and jalape?os for 2-3 minutes. Add garlic and cook for another 60 seconds.
  7. Add the cooked bacon, maple syrup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and Cajun seasoning to the skillet. Mix well and simmer over medium-low heat for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Adjust thickness with water or more maple syrup/brown sugar if needed. Allow to cool before serving.
