Blazing Devil Eggs Yield:
6 servings
6 eggs
¼
cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon white vinegar
1
teaspoon yellow mustard
¼ teaspoon Papa’s All-Purpose Seasoning
Beezle-Rub Blazing Spice, for
garnish
Directions:
Place eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with
enough water to have 1 ½” of water above the eggs. Heat on high until water begins to boil, then
cover, turn the heat to low, and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat and leave covered for 14
minutes, then rinse under cold water continuously for 1 minute. Crack egg shells and carefully peel under
cool running water. Gently dry with
paper towels.
Slice the peeled eggs in half lengthwise, removing yolks to
a medium bowl, and placing the whites on a serving platter. Mash the yolks into a fine crumble using a
fork. Add mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard,
and Papa’s All-Purpose Seasoning; mix well.
Using a pastry bag or spoon, fill each egg white half with a generous
amount of the yolk mixture. Sprinkle
with Beezle-Rub Blazing Spice and serve.
Spicy Caramel Corn Yields: 12 servings
This
is our take on a classic. For an added twist, add a bag of the cheddar
puff-corn when the caramel has cooled completely.
1 Bag of Old Dutch Puffcorn
1
Cup of Butter (Not Margarine)
1 1/4 Cups of Brown Sugar
2/3
Cup of Light Corn Syrup
1 tsp. of Baking Soda
2
Tbsp. Beelze-Rub
Preheat oven to 250°F.
Combine butter, brown sugar, and light corn syrup in a 2
quart sauce pan. Cook on medium heat until mixture has melted. Once mixture has
melted add the baking soda. (Note: This will cause the mixture to foam)
In a large roaster pan pour Old Dutch Puffcorn and pour
caramel mixture over the Old Dutch Puffcorn and stir until mixed. Place in oven
for 45 minutes, stirring at least every 10-15 minutes.
Remove from oven, pour on wax paper. Before completely
cooled sprinkle with Beelze-Rub and then break apart.

Beelze-Rub and toss again.
Candied Bacon
Yields: 12 servings
