Ingredients

  1. Deselect All
  2. 3 pounds baby Yukon gold potatoes
  3. 2 tablespoons kosher salt
  4. 8 slices thick-cut bacon
  5. 1/2 cup red wine vinegar
  6. 1 to 2 tablespoons honey
  7. 1 teaspoon red chile flakes
  8. 1 teaspoon dried dill
  9. 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  10. 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  11. 1/4 cup BBQ sauce
  12. 2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
  13. 1 to 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  14. 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  15. 3 dashes Worcestershire sauce
  16. 1 pinch of kosher salt
  17. 1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves

Instructions

  1. For the potatoes: Put the potatoes in a pot with cold water and add the salt. Cover, bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain, cut in half and transfer to a bowl.
  2. Fry the bacon in large skillet over medium heat until crisp, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate, chop into 1-inch pieces and reserve.
  3. For the quick-pickled onion: Combine the red wine vinegar, honey, chile flakes and dill in a small bowl and whisk until the honey is completely dissolved. Add 1/2 cup water and the sliced onions. Toss well to combine and submerge the onions. Set aside or transfer to a container with an airtight lid. The quick-pickled onions can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
  4. For the dressing: Mix together the mayonnaise, BBQ sauce, mustard, apple cider vinegar, pepper, Worcestershire and salt in a medium bowl until combined.
  5. Pour the dressing onto the potatoes, add a third of the pickled onions, two-thirds of the chopped bacon and half the chopped parsley and toss. To serve, garnish with the remaining parsley, bacon and pickled red onions.

My kids who don’t like traditional potato salad really liked this. It was just meh for me. I probably wouldn’t make it again.
Nicholas Beasley
Really wanted to like it, everyone felt it was just ok. Added a little more vinegar to get a bit more bite.

With all the (15) ingredients, i was hoping for more.

Brian Hobbs
This is outstanding!!! Easy, fast, delicious!!!
Brian Kramer
I tried this recipe although the family loves my traditional salad. I did use red potatoes as I had them available this was a real winner we all loved the smoking flavor and tartness of pickled onion. I am 80 and have been makes my potato salad from my Mothers recipe since I was a teenager. Everyone is asked no when I will make this again. Tonight why not?
Ronald Richards
Great little twist on a traditional potato salad with the smoky flavor!!! My daughter said this was the best potato salad she ever had. I did add some hard boiled egg.
Nicole Harris
Best side dish for smoked or BBQ meat. Make this all the time.
Charles Morgan
I did make it and did not like it. Not the best recipe from her.

What a wonderful twist on a favorite side dish. The pickled onions are amazing and add to the tang of the dressing. My family loved it.

This a is summertime staple! My family loves it so much. However, I don’t measure anything I just go by taste so mine may be a tad different.
