These Bacon Jalapeño Cheddar Egg Bites are loaded with smoky bacon, sharp cheddar, fresh jalapeños, and a creamy egg base that's cooked low and slow on the Pit Boss Pellet Grill. They're the perfect grab-and-go breakfast with just the right amount of heat and plenty of wood-fired flavor.

Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup cottage cheese
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 8 slices of bacon, diced
  • 1 Jalapeño, finely diced
  • 2 oz. cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp chopped chives

Tools

  • Muffin tins
  • Cooking Spray
  • Blender

Directions

  • Preheat your Pit Boss Pellet Grill to 275°F using Hickory, Competition Blend, or Maple pellets.
  • Add the eggs, cottage cheese, heavy cream, cheddar cheese, cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  • Fold in the chopped bacon, diced jalapeño, and chives.
  • Lightly spray a silicone egg bite mold or muffin pan with cooking spray.
  • Fill each cavity about three-quarters full with the egg mixture.
  • Place the mold directly on the grill grates and cook for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and reach an internal temperature of 165°F.
  • Remove from the grill and let the egg bites cool for 5 minutes before removing them from the mold.
  • Garnish with additional shredded cheddar, chopped chives, or sliced jalapeños if desired.
  • Serve warm on their own or with salsa, sour cream, or your favorite hot sauce.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave for 20 to 30 seconds or warm them on the Pit Boss for a few minutes before serving.
