Looking for spicy pickled egg recipes

The easiest peeling eggs I have ever done were the last few batches I did in the " Instant Pot " pressure cooker. Load it up and let it come to pressure for 2 minutes, let it release the pressure naturally and drop the eggs in an ice water bath for 5 minutes, shells practically fall off.

High or low pressure setting?

High with a cup or so of water in the pot, we usually load 18 on top of the trivet.

Your pressure cooker method worked great!

Or just pickled sausage ...

Pickled sausage

Found some 'good deal' smoked sausage in the bargain bin. Made sausage and homemade sauerkraut with some and pickled the rest. Simple to make …

1 teaspoon on crushed red pepper flakes
2 med garlic cloves cut in half
1 teaspoon of black peppercorns
2 small bay leaves
1 1/2 Tablespoon and of kosher or sea salt

Bring to a boil

These are the basic ingredients. You can always add some pickling spices, red or white onion, garlic, or any combination of peppers, etc .

Cook sausage in the oven
Place in jar hot
Pour hot pickle liquid in to cover the sausage
Let cool on the counter
Seal with a lid and put in the refrigerator for at least a week although at least 2 weeks is better.

I don’t see any liquid in this recipe. Probably vinegar/water/sugar?

High cholesterol is about the only medical problem I don't have. Drives my doctor nuts, i'm his only patient not taking lipitor.

I'm on Lipitor, but not because of High Cholesterol, I've previously had a stroke and Lipitor is also given to stabilize clots to hopefully prevent future "events"

I keep Japanese quail for eggs and at times end up with way too many eggs, so I pickle them with a brine based on malt vinegar. Peeling 6 dozen eggs a quarter the size of a chicken egg is too fiddly, so I use an old trick. Boil the eggs then cover with white vinegar overnight. The shells dissolve and all you have to do is remove the membrane. No doubt it would work with chicken eggs as well.

I use a variation on that, I boil my eggs with 1/4cup of Kosher salt and a cup of white vinegar added to the boiling water.

The old ELKS lodge used reuse the liquid from the pickled Red Hot sausages sold at the bar.
Boiled the liquid and pored over the gallon jar full of hard boiled eggs. Laverne, the German lady and head cook, added extra spices to the mix.

Also put them in a smoker for some extra flavors

Smoke before or after pickling? Does the pickling remove the smoke flavor?
