I was traveling once though Tennessee and got this AWESOME picked egg at one of those local convenient stores. They told me it had beat juice and jalapeños and the obvious vinegar,garlic and spices. in it. The egg was a beat red color of course. I tried to duplicate it but nothing close, Im missing something. I also want any other ideas that don't have to pertain to this. Thanks all!

buy the pickled beets at the store, either in a jar or can, drain and save the liquid. eat the beets or you can use them with the eggs. place the beets juice in a sauce pan and add 2 cloves of garlic that you have smashed, one small onion thinly sliced and a couple tablespoons of pickled jalapenos or more if you want the eggs really spicy. bring to a boil and then pour over peeled hard boiled eggs in a clean glass jar. cover and store in the fridge for 4-7 days before eating. You can make you own pickling juice instead of using the pickled beet juice but it would not be red, well you could add red food coloring but why? anyway, to make you own juice in a sauce pan heat to boiling:
2 cups cider vinegar - if you want it less sweet use half cider vinegar and half white vinegar
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons celery seed
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon black peppercorns - slightly crushed
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
then add the garlic, onion and Jalapenos and pour over the eggs in jars and store covered.
enjoy!
Ingredients
1 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
1/8 teaspoon pickling spice
6 large hard-boiled eggs, peeled
1 small yellow onion, peeled and sliced
2 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
Fresh dill sprigs, garnish
Sliced French bread, as an accompaniment
Direction
In a non-reactive saucepan, combine the vinegar, sugar, peppercorns, and pickling spice. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat and let sit for 2 hours for the flavors to develop. Add the eggs, onions, and garlic and turn to coat evenly. Cover tightly and refrigerate, turning occasionally, until the eggs are a deep pink color, at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours.
To serve, remove the eggs and onions from the marinade and arrange on a platter. Garnish with sprigs of dill and serve with sliced French bread.
