No, they aren't really smoked in a smoker, but they sure taste like they were! There's just a light touch of smokiness added that you have complete control of. Add a little or add a lot - You make them the way you like them. I use just 1/8 teaspoon of liquid smoke and the smoky flavor is just barely noticeable. I took these to a dinner tonight, where a couple deviled egg aficionados declared them to be the best deviled eggs they have ever had. Considering I have served them over 30 really good different varieties, that's really saying something!
