Potato Salad with Bacon

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds small red potatoes, quartered
  • 1/2 pound bacon, diced
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

Serves: 6 to 8

Method: Boiling and direct grilling

  1. Place the quartered potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a generous pinch of salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 10-12 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  2. Set the EGG for direct cooking at 400°F/204°C.
  3. In a cast iron skillet, cook the diced bacon on the EGG until crispy. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the bacon drippings.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, reserved bacon drippings, chopped chives, salt, and freshly ground black pepper.
  5. Add the cooked potatoes and crispy bacon to the dressing. Toss gently to combine, ensuring the potatoes are well coated.
  6. Serve the potato salad warm or at room temperature. Garnish with additional chives, if desired.
