Instructions

- Plunge the eggs into a bowl of ice water to cool for 10 minutes.
- Tap the eggs with the back of a spoon gently.
- Eggs can sit in water overnight for incredibly easy to peel eggs.
- When you're almost ready to serve, peel eggs.
- Cut eggs in half, lengthwise.
- Gently use a spoon to scoop out egg yolks. Place in small bowl nearby.
- Add yolks and mayonnaise to the bowl.
- Whip with a fork or electric mixer until yolk mixture is smooth and fluffy.
- Scoop the yolk mix to a pastry bag fitted with a star tip, or a plastic bag with the corner cut off.
- Scoop about a teaspoon crab meat into half of the egg white half.
- Set the egg white halves on a serving platter and pipe in the filling.
- Just before serving, sprinkle the deviled eggs with bacon, old bay, and chives.
- Enjoy!
