Place the eggs in a single layer in a medium-sized saucepan. Cover with cold water, about 1 inch above the tops of the eggs.
Bring the water to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, remove the saucepan from heat, cover with a lid, and let the eggs sit for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare a bowl with ice water. After 10 minutes, transfer the eggs to the ice water using a slotted spoon and let them cool for 5 minutes.
Gently peel the eggs and slice each one in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop out the yolks and place them in a medium mixing bowl. Set the egg whites aside on a serving plate.
Mash the yolks with a fork until smooth. Add mayonnaise, barbecue sauce, mustard, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir until the mixture is creamy and well combined.
Using a spoon or a piping bag fitted with a star tip, fill the egg white halves with the yolk mixture.
Garnish the filled eggs with chopped chives and crumbled bacon, if using, for extra flavor and texture.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 4 hours before serving.
