Simply the Best Deviled Eggs

Place eggs into a saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and let stand for 15 minutes.

Remove eggs from hot water and place under cold running water to cool. Peel eggs. Slice each egg in half lengthwise. Place yolks into a small bowl.

Add 1/2 cup bacon, onion, dill pickle relish, mayonnaise, mustard, and bacon drippings to egg yolks. Mix with a fork until combined but yolks are still chunky. Stir in salt and pepper.

Scoop yolk mixture into each egg white. Sprinkle paprika over eggs, then garnish with remaining 1/4 cup bacon.
