Ingredients
Vinaigrette:
- 1/2 cup white wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon coarse-grained mustard
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 1/2 pounds red potatoes, diced into 1-inch cubes
- Salt
- 6 bacon slices, chopped
- 1 medium sized red onion, diced
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1/4 cup freshly chopped dill leaves, plus more for garnish
Directions
For the vinaigrette:
Mix all the ingredients together in a small bowl and set aside.
Add potatoes to pot of salted cold water. Bring to a boil, over high heat, then reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes until tender. Drain and place in a large bowl. Cover with foil to keep warm, if necessary.
Add bacon to large saute pan and cook until crisp over medium heat. Remove to a paper towel-lined sheet tray and reserve. Add onion, dash of pepper and garlic to bacon grease and saute until tender, about 3 minutes. Add vinaigrette to vegetables. Let cook until reduced and thickened, about 2 to 3 minutes.
Add potatoes, dill and bacon to the pan and toss to coat with dressing. Allow to cook for 3 minutes. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Transfer potato salad to a serving platter and sprinkle with chopped fresh dill.

I have made this about 5 times and it is an absolute crowd pleaser every single time! It's great for cookouts as you don't have to worry about mayo or eggs spoiling by sitting out. The flavor is delicious and I will continue to make again and again. Thank you, Neelys!

Delish!!! I made this dish on Thanksgiving 2 years ago, and my family has been raving about it ever since! Puts a unique spin on potato salad! Try this one and you'll be the family hero for the holidays!

mmmmm delicious!! I used turkey bacon instead and used less white wine vinegar. It was so delicious. My hubby and family dislike traditional potato salad because mayo is a big no-no. But this was a big hit for our memorial day festivities.
