Small red potatoes are first baked, then chopped or sliced and tossed with bacon and onion in a mayonnaise, vinegar and ranch dressing seasoning.
Bacon Ranch Cold Baked Potato Salad
I've already shared my just-like-Mama's southern style no-frills simple potato salad but this one here is also a big favorite of mine.Initially, this was my attempt to duplicate a potato salad served at one of our local favorite barbecue hangouts, but since writing the recipe, they've changed their version which has no eggs, is much whiter in color and seems to be heavy in sour cream and mayonnaise.
Well, I really like this cold baked potato salad anyway, so I'll add it to my ever-growing group of potato salad recipes! Unlike my more traditional southern style potato salad, I prefer this one well chilled, so I do suggest making it up a day ahead if at all possible. Here's how to make it.
If you make this or any of my recipes, I'd love to see your results! Just snap a photo and hashtag it #DeepSouthDish on social media or tag me @deepsouthdish on Instagram!
