These chunks, which are also available as wood chips, will add layers of complex flavor to just about anything you smoke them with, even these deviled eggs.

Here’s what Matt had to say about his recipe:

“They’re bombalicious!! Hard boil ‘em, then smoke ‘em for about 30 minutes low temp. Let ‘em cool then slice ‘em in half and make my badass smoked deviled eggs with candied bacon. I dare ya to stop at 10!! I can’t post a picture here but I’ll send you a couple pics and you can post ‘em!! 🍺🥚”
