Place eggs in a large saucepan and cover with water by one inch. Bring to boil; lower heat to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes.
Fill a large bowl halfway with ice and water. When eggs have cooked, transfer them with a slotted spoon to ice bath. Let cool completely. Peel eggs and cut each in half lengthwise.
Remove yolks and place in a bowl. Mash yolks with a fork until smooth.
Add 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt and cayenne pepper. Mix until well blended. Add additional tablespoon of mayonnaise if desired for smoother consistency.
Transfer yolk mixture to a piping bag fitted with a plain or star tip, or to a Ziplock bag. If using a Ziplock bag, seal bag and snip off one corner. Pipe yolk mixture into empty egg whites.
