i've been eating the potato salad from costco a lot, but i want to re-create it for cheaper, i know it can be done, and i just dont have a real recipe for it, all the crap on the internet is all lame, i've tried a few sauce mixes, and they dont taste like potato salad creamy goodness... ya know? some use mayo, some use miracle whip, it's a bunch of crap... my grandma used to make the best potato salad in the world, but she died, or else i would ask her... so do you know someone who really know's how to bust out some real potatoe salad? no crap like bell peppers and green beans, just the basics, potatos, some onion, and maybe a meat and pickle, but really creamy, like the kind you buy in teh stores...

As for for p'tater salad, bacon is essential. Not that thin ass bacon from the processed meat section.. the end pieces. Chunks of mother fucking bacon. Word.

This is grandma's recipe, she's Irish so who better would know how to make some bomb ass potato salad... it might sound weird. but trust me it is the best/creamiest potato salad I've ever had.
INGREDIENTS: 6 medium-size round red potatoes 1/4 cup chopped green onions 1 (2 ounce) jar diced pimiento, drained (optional) 1/2 cup mayonnaise 1/4 cup plain yogurt (I know this sounds gross but trust me... it makes if very creamy. 1/4 cup sour cream 1/2 tablespoon sugar 2 tablespoons prepared mustard 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar (optional) 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon celery seeds (optional 1/4 teaspoon pepper 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder Green onion fan (optional)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DIRECTIONS: Cut potatoes into 1/2-inch pieces; place in a medium saucepan. Add water to cover. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 15 to 20 minutes or until tender. Drain and cool. Combine potato, chopped green onions, and pimiento in a large bowl; toss gently. Combine mayonnaise and next 9 ingredients; stir well. Add to potato mixture, tossing gently to coat. Cover and chill. Garnish with a green onion fan, if desired.
oh yeah I forgot... bacon bits are really good in this too (the real kind not bacos)

sweet thanks all... i've been looking for the creamyness, mayo just dont seem thick enough, ya know? it's creamy, but not a thick creamy like potato salad should be..
my grandma was full swiss, grew up there and shit, and she made this one german potatoe salad that was freakin good... she also always made a kickass american version...
my grandma also made the worlds best green beans, and a freakin cheese cake that would top any mother fuckin cheese cake in the world... she told me the secret to it once, said "i use twice the cream cheese"... and oh, is it bomb....

yeak, sour cream seems like the way, it's the #2 ingredient to the costco brand, after potatoe's...
potaoes, sour cream, mayo, sour dressing, etc.
