I started with Mike Hedrick's recipe. He's the Pit Crew Barbecue Chef and owner. I added a shot of Sriracha Sauce for slightly more heat. I'll list it as optional.

- Separate the yolks.
- Set the whites in a tray.

I posted this because I want to know–
1. Does anyone smoke deviled eggs? How?
2. What are your favorite variations on this theme?
