This is the hands-down best potato salad out there. Everyone who tries it can't stop eating it. Even my friend who doesn't generally care for potato salad raves about this one! Try it, I dare you to not LOVE it!

Blue Ribbon Recipe

An excellent potato salad when you're looking to switch up your go-to recipe. It's creamy with a hint of smokiness. The potato salad has a light onion and mustard flavor with crisp peppered bacon and chopped hard-boiled eggs folded in. You're going to have a hard time not falling in love with this potato salad. It's so good!
