Bacon and Egg Salad
Sat, 01/19/13 1:37 PM
( permalink)
Bacon and Egg Salad 1 dozen boiled & peeled eggs 1 pound bacon; crisply fried & broken into ½ inch pieces Durkee’s Famous Sauce Your favorite mayo Horseradish Sauce Freshly ground black pepper Press eggs through a ½ inch mesh (I use an old fashioned cake batter mixer) into a suitable sized mixing bowl. Add half a mixture of the Durkee’s sauce, and your mixture of at most ¼ mayo and ¼ horseradish sauce. (The actual ratio of these ingredients can be altered to your individual taste). Mix completely but keep the mixture from becoming too smooth. Taste, add black pepper to taste, and mix lightly again. Refrigerate at least 8 hours to properly marinate. Enjoy in your favorite sandwich bread or on top of your choice of crackers. For added zest, top with a small squirt of Sriracha sauce.

Since I"m not an egg lover, I might substitute potato and I'll bet it is still good

Kind of a sweet mayo sauce-am I right, people? That sounds good for me, I love eggs. Bob hates eggs, and kinda sweet mayo,( he loves Duke's)so not an option for him. But i would do it for myself.

Durkee's is becoming increasingly harder to find. Everyday new products crop up pushing old standbys off the shelf!

I think it's a sort of mustardy mayonnaise sauce.

Press eggs through a ½ inch mesh (I use an old fashioned cake batter mixer) into a suitable sized mixing bowl. Does this do a quick slicing of the eggs into 1/2 inch chunks? When I first read it, I thought smaller sized grid and thought it would produce a creamy egg mush, but then reread it and saw 1/2 inch. We like our egg salads to be chunky, not creamy...Other than that, this sounds like it tastes really great. AND before any jokers mention it, yes we know we can get chunkier egg salad if we leave in the shells...  NO THANKS, we don't need our daily dose of calcium that way...Stan...

This sounds really good! Love Durkee's in crab cakes or crab casserole too! I often have Durkee's on hand, but am out of it at the moment. Will try your bacon and egg salad recipe soon. Egg salad is also good on toast for breakfast!

It also sounds like a good deviled egg recipe. I know, I know, egg on egg, but great deviled are a treasure!

Adjudicator, I knew you could by it on-line by the case but a case would last me 5 lifetimes. Guess I could put it in the will or let my survivors just fight over it! That would be fun to watch!

Correctly it should say a 1inch mesh (old fashioned cake batter mixer).

Similar to one that I make except no horseradish sauce and I add a very small amount of grated onion and celery, some seasoned salt and a very small amount of mustard. Mayo is Dukes.

So, Durkee's sounds like Miracle Whip with some mustard in it. Just how my mother made her egg salad.

No. Durkee's Famous Sauce is as much like Miracle Whip as my computer is like the cottonwood trees down the slope from my house.

Bought some Durkees today at local market for $2.89. Don't know if that is the same as Kroger, guess Kroger sells it. Publix is 30 minutes away. Will spread it and Dukes Mayo on bread tomorrow, add ham and swiss cheese and have my lunch sammich.

Looks pretty good. When I was younger, and surer of eye, I used to bark squirrels.

Attn: lleechef, I spoke to another Roadfooder last week, I can't divulge his name, Hint " It Rhymes with bacon" anyway, we talked about Michael being a bit to darn nice. We both decided we wanted the OLD Michael back. The guy who use to eat hot dogs at Friday night football games and spill mustard all over his jacket. We both knew Michael would clean up well, but, we think you took, it a bit to far. I saw a picture of you and Michael on this site, I think I saw Michael with a smile on his face, What the heck is that about, is he being feed to well, was the smile really gas...We need to know, What did you do with him, the truth will come out sooner or later. We miss the sarcasm, and the wit that we have grown to love.................pnwc
