Place the eggs in a single layer in a medium saucepan and cover them with enough cold water to fully submerge them by about 1 inch.
Bring the water to a gentle boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and let the eggs simmer for 10 minutes.
Carefully drain the hot water and immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for at least 5 minutes. This step stops the cooking process and makes peeling easier.
Peel the eggs by gently tapping them on a hard surface and rolling them to loosen the shell, then remove the shell under running water for smooth peeling.
Slice each egg in half lengthwise and carefully scoop out the yolks into a medium mixing bowl. Place the egg whites on a serving platter with the hollow side facing up.
Mash the egg yolks with a fork until smooth, then add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, hickory-smoked salt, and black pepper. Mix until the filling is creamy and well-combined.
Using a spoon or piping bag, evenly fill the cavities of the egg whites with the yolk mixture.
Sprinkle a pinch of smoked paprika over the filled eggs for a touch of garnish and top with chopped chives or green onions.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Hickory House Deviled Eggs!
