Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Place the cubed potatoes in a large pot and cover completely with cold, salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat. (5 minutes)

02

Step
20 mins

Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer gently until the potatoes are just tender when pierced with a fork. (15-20 minutes)

03

Step
2 hrs

Drain the potatoes thoroughly in a colander. Transfer them to baking sheets lined with parchment paper, spreading them in a single layer to allow steam to escape. Refrigerate until completely cold. (2 hours)

04

Step
5 mins

In a large bowl, gently combine the cooled potatoes with the diced hard-cooked eggs, mayonnaise, red onion, barbeque sauce, and garlic powder. Season generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Mix carefully to avoid mashing the potatoes. (5 minutes)

05

Step
2 hrs

Sprinkle the top of the potato salad with smoked paprika for a final touch of color and smoky flavor. (2 minutes)

For an even richer flavor, try grilling the potatoes lightly before cubing them.
If you prefer a tangier salad, add a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar.
This salad is best served chilled and will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Consider adding crumbled bacon or chopped celery for added texture and flavor.

    The tip about cooling the potatoes on a baking sheet is genius. They didn't get mushy at all!

    Absolutely! In fact, the flavors meld together even better overnight.

    I added a touch of Dijon mustard for an extra kick. Delicious!
