A Manly Potato Salad















I had bacon. I had blue cheese. I had a red onion and a brand new bag of red potatoes. And I had to bring something to a potluck barbecue. I wanted to avoid a mayo-based salad, so I turned to Bobby Flay's Grilled Potato Salad with Bacon-Blue Cheese Vinaigrette. It earned me a "holy frackin crap" from Ed. (That's a good thing.)
It required parboiling then grilling the red potatoes. These weren't the small, new potatoes, so I cut each potato in six or eight pieces. If I made it again, I'd cut them even smaller (although grilling would be more involved). The onion, bacon, and blue cheese components were so strong-tasting that I needed to balance the bites with smaller bits of potato.

Ed is so funny, I can just hear him saying "holy frackin crap"!

Once again, you are amazing! I took a jello salad to my family BBQ today, not nearly as wild and crazy, but at least it wasn't mayo based! (I pretty much hate macaroni salad!) :)
