Sprinkle each slice of bacon with some of the spiced sugar and bake, about 10 minutes. Flip the bacon, sprinkle with the remaining spiced sugar and continue to cook until crispy, about 10 more minutes. Remove the bacon from the oven and allow to cool. When the bacon is cool, mince it and set aside, reserving a quarter of it for garnishing the eggs.
• Put the cold eggs in the bottom of a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil and remove the pan from the heat. Cover the pan with a lid and let stand for 12 minutes. Drain the eggs and rinse with cold water. Let the eggs cool a bit and then peel when they are still warm (eggs are much easier to peel when they are warm). After they are peeled, you can then store them, covered, in the fridge.
• Mix together the mayonnaise, mustard, dill, cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne, the scallions and the minced bacon in a medium mixing bowl. Season with the salt.
• Slice the eggs in half lengthwise. Gently remove the yolks by pressing your thumb against the back of the yolk to pop it out of the white. Add the yolks to the bowl with the mayonnaise mixture. Mash together, using a fork, until smooth.
• Put the filling in a re-sealable bag. Cut one end off and pipe the filling into the egg whites. Sprinkle with the paprika, extra bacon bits and dill before serving.
• Cook's Notes:.
• A wire rack is a great way to cook bacon because the air can circulate around the bacon making it crispy and delicious.
• Plastic bags are a great tool to use in place of a piping bag, easy and disposable.

DEVILED EGGS CANDIED BACON

Steps:

• COOK THE BACON
• In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, cayenne and cinnamon. Place the bacon on a large baking sheet and sprinkle a teaspoon or so of the brown sugar mixture over each slice of bacon, using only half the total mixture.
• Bake for 10-15 minutes until the edges are starting to brown. Turn the bacon over and sprinkle the rest of the brown sugar mixture on top and continue to bake until crispy, another 10-15 minutes. Remove and let cool.
• PREPARE THE EGGS
• Place the cold eggs directly from the refrigerator into the bottom of a medium size saucepan and cover with cold water, at least 1 inch above the eggs. Bring the water to a boil and let it go for 3 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and cover with a lid, letting the eggs sit for another 12 minutes. They will continue to cook as they sit in the hot water.
• Drain the eggs and add cold water to the pan for a couple more minutes to lightly cool the eggs. Drain again and peel while warm. Set aside.
• MAKE THE EGG YOLK/MAYO MIXTURE
• In a medium-sized bowl, mix the mayo, mustard, dill, cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, lemon pepper, green onions and salt.
• Slice the eggs in half and gently remove the cooled and cooked yolk. On a plate, smash the yolks with a fork until smooth and there are no large lumps. Alternatively, use a food processor to make the egg yolk/mayo mixture.
• Chop the bacon into small pieces and add one tablespoon of it to the egg yolk mixture. Reserve the rest of the bacon for garnish.
• Place the egg/mayo mixture into a large plastic bag to pipe into the egg white shells. Tip: Set an unfilled plastic bag in an empty glass with a wide rim to make it easier to spoon the egg mixture inside.
• Twist the top of the bag and snip the end with scissors to make a hole. Pipe the filling into the egg white halves.
• Sprinkle the filled eggs with the remaining candied bacon, more fresh dill and a light dusting of paprika for serving.

TO-DIE-FOR CANDIED BACON DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Place eggs in a large saucepan and fill saucepan with water until it comes to about an inch over the eggs. Place on a burner over high heat and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat, cover saucepan and let sit for 10 minutes. Once the timer goes off, transfer the eggs to an ice bath until they are cool to the touch.
• Place bacon on a baking rack over a sheet pan. In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cayenne with a fork. Sprinkle half of the mixture over the bacon, reserving the rest for later. Place bacon in oven, then turn oven on to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Set a timer for 12 minutes (the preheating time is considered part of the cooking time here.)
• After the 12 minutes is up, remove the bacon and, using tongs, flip it over. Sprinkle the reserved brown sugar-cayenne mixture over the second side and return to the oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the bacon looks done and fairly crisp. Remove and let cool on the rack, turning off the oven.
• Peel your eggs and slice them in half vertically. Carefully scoop out the yolks and add them to a small mixing bowl. Next, add the vinegar, mayonnaise, relish, salt and pepper to the mixing bowl. Mash all of the ingredients together with a fork, until there are no large chunks remaining.
• Using a piping bag, Ziploc or spoon, divide the filling evenly among the whites of the eggs. Finely chop up three slices of the candied bacon and sprinkle over the top of each egg. To finish, sprinkle on some chopped fresh chives.
