Special Precautions and Tips:

• For a smoother filling, use a food processor to blend the egg yolks and other ingredients until creamy.
• If you don't have crispy bacon, you can cook some in a skillet until crispy, then chop it up.
• For a more intense flavor, use smoked bacon instead of regular bacon.
• Serve the deviled eggs chilled for the best flavor and texture.
