A Failed Science Experiment
 
After careful observation I have concluded that trying to heat up cold
boiled eggs in a microwave oven is not a good idea. My wife agrees.

Any suggestions?

Are you trying to do this without peeling the egg? I'd cut the egg up
a bit and just use the defrost cycle for about 15 seconds. You just
need it warm, not hot.

The eggs were peeled and uncut. I was trying for something a bit
beyond warm when the **** hit the fan.

How about dipping them in hot or at least warm water?

I think I did similar with a hotdog. Damn thing exploded into tiny
pieces at one end... made one hell of a mess.

That would probably work but it's hard to beat a microwave for speed.
I think John's suggestion of cutting the eggs first has some merit,
don't know why I didn't think of that before the massive explosion and
ensuing clean up operation.

Could'a should'a.

Hotel we stay at in Santa Monica says to not microwave the hard boiled
peeled eggs.

In the Army we'd say, "**** a buncha hotels."

I stick by cutting it and using defrost cycle. Heat it slowly.

**** Wayne! You cut the damn things when you eat them, so cut it in
half before zapping it. Zap it on low power.

....or...do you eat the things whole?

I'll send you a couple of eggs if you want to try and reproduce my

The one I blew up (shell on) pretty much turned to dust.

I should have been so lucky.
