Potato Salad

Recipe #25768 | 1¼ hours | 30 min prep | SERVES 8 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: ratherbeswimmin'

I make this all summer long. We have to have this anytime we grill or BBQ which is often. Never, never any left-over.

    Yum! This was excellent. I did make just a few changes, however, based on personal preference. I added a little bit of dill weed, and chopped up some dill pickles since I was out of relish. I also would recommend peeling your potatoes before boiling them because when I boiled them first, and then peeled them- the skin kept getting stuck in my grater, and caused a lot of hassle.

    Wonderful potato salad! I used russet potatoes (no reds on hand), however otherwise prepared as instructed with the addition of just a tad more salt as to personal perference. This is basically the way I normally prepare potato salad, only with the addition of some thinly sliced celery. We enjoyed it with our barbecued ribs; a great combination! Thanks for sharing!

    This is an excellent potato salad recipe. I used celery salt instead of the salt and celery seeds because I did not have the seeds, but it turned out fine. It is a very mild taste. Next time I will add a little more mustard, perhaps something spicy. I will absolutely use this recipe again. Thank you!
