Some times we pickle eggs just by keeping them in left over sweet pickle or sweet mix (pickle, cauliflower, onion) juice.
Depending on which juice and how much is available it may be topped off with water, vinegar, or both as needed.
Not really a pickling process, but more a flavor thing.

I like to cold smoke boiled eggs the same time I smoke cheese. Then pickle them in pickling juice. No pickling juice goes to waste here, even the juice from dilly beans, pickled beets and olives....James
