Add raw eggs to the 6-Quart pot.
Fill a 6-Quart pot with cool water and then place it on the stove.
Add the egg timer to the pot and then turn the stove on to Medium-High.
Bring the water to a boil and boil the eggs until the center of the egg timer turns white.
Add ice to a large bowl and then add cold water to the bowl.
Add the eggs into the ice cold water in the bowl and let the hot eggs cool down.
Remove an egg from the ice-cold water and hit it against the countertop.
Peel off the shells and dispose of them. If needed, rinse the eggs to get the shell residue off.
