In a medium bowl or a food processor- combine the yolks with the mayo, mustard, and brine (start with one teaspoon of mustard and brine and add more to reach desire consistency) and mash it up

add hot sauce and salt and pepper to taste after- this will vary wildly depending on what you use for the vinegar bit and the spicy bit

spoon or scoop or pipe the yolk mixture into the egg whites

garnish as desired

optional step- make one, test it. madd more of this or that as necessary. repeat until full
