Ingredients Needed For A Deviled Egg Flight Board
(Makes 30 deviled eggs — 6 halves of each flavor)
Base Deviled Egg Mixture
- 15 large eggs
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 ½ tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp white vinegar
- Salt & pepper, to taste
#1 — Buffalo Ranch
- 2 Tbsp buffalo sauce – Note: You can use any favorite store-bought buffalo wing sauce for this flavor. I like Frank’s RedHot Buffalo Wing Sauce for its classic tangy heat, but Sweet Baby Ray’s or Primal Kitchen Buffalo Sauce work great too.
- 1 Tbsp ranch dressing
- Garnish:celery sliver
#2 — Everything Bagel
- 1 Tbsp sour cream
- 1 tsp cream cheese, softened
- 1 tsp everything bagel seasoning (plus more for topping)
- Garnish: thin cucumber slice
#3 — Bacon Maple
- 1 Tbsp maple syrup
- 2 Tbsp crispy bacon crumbles
- Garnish: bacon piece + drizzle of maple syrup
#4 — Spicy Red Chili
- 2 tsp roasted red chili paste
- 1/2 tsp soy sauce (optional, for extra umami)
- Garnish: sesame seeds + snipped chives
#5 — Smoked Deviled Eggs
How to smoke the eggs: After boiling and peeling, place whole eggs in a smoker at 180°F for 30–45 minutes using applewood or pecan chips. The whites will absorb that smoky flavor, while the yolks stay unchanged.
Mix-in for yolk base: Simply add the smoked yolks into the rest of the yolks when making your base filling.
Garnish: Sprinkle lightly with smoked paprika and top with an olive slice
No smoker? Just skip the smoking step and mix in the smoked paprika — still RIDIC-ULICIOUS!
Instructions
- Boil the eggs
Place eggs in a stock pot, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover, remove from heat, and let sit for 12 minutes. Drain and transfer to an ice bath to cool completely. These steps ensure that your deviled egg flight board will have perfectly boiled eggs as its base. - Peel and halve
Peel the eggs and slice in half lengthwise. Remove yolks to a bowl. - Make the base mixture
Mash yolks with mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper until smooth. Because this is your flavor foundation, you want it creamy and well-seasoned. - Divide into five bowls
Spoon equal portions of the base mixture into five separate bowls. This ensures that the ultimate deviled egg flight board will have a balanced flavor distribution. - Create each flavor
Stir the unique ingredients for each flavor into its own bowl. Since each mix-in has its own personality, you’ll notice the color and texture change instantly. - Pipe and garnish
Use a piping bag (or zip-top bag with the corner snipped) to fill egg whites with each flavored mixture. Add garnishes to match the flavor. - Arrange your flight
Finally, place each flavor in its own row or section on a serving board. Label each flavor for that “flight” experience so guests know exactly what they’re tasting.
Nettie’s Tips For The Best Deviled Egg Flight
- For the smoked eggs, keep the smoking time on the shorter side for a lighter flavor, or go the full 45 minutes for deeper smokiness.
- Make the yolk fillings the day before and refrigerate in plastic bags or piping bags. Just pipe and garnish before serving to ensure the ultimate deviled egg flight board is quick to assemble.
- A long wooden charcuterie board makes an excellent presentation for your ultimate deviled egg flight board.
Storage
Store deviled eggs in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. For the best flavor, serve them within 24 hours of making to ensure that your ultimate deviled egg flight board remains delicious.
