But if I am serving them to friends and family, it's a battle.

I do mine in the instant pot. I put a veggie basket in the bottom, add an inch or so of water to the pot, put my eggs in. I think the most I've done is 14 eggs, although I could definitely fit more in. Lid on, set pressure to low, set timer to 7 minutes, walk away. When the timer goes off, I do a quick release. While the steam is escaping, I fill a bowl with ice and water. Transfer the eggs to the ice water bath, let them sit for 10 minutes or so. Then refrigerate. They always peel easy and never have a green ring.
ETA: I store them in the fridge with their shells on until I'm ready to use them.
