Good looking tater salad, WTS.
Just made some smoked hash browns with garlic and cheese mixed in. Smoked the skinned potatoes for 30 minutes, shredded them with a cheese grater, added some garlic. Heated about 4 T of unsalted butter, fried them up in the butter for about 8 mins per side and then put them on low to cook a little longer and threw some shredded cheese on top.
I think taters are my favorite side dish of all time. The wife loves poatato salad...I'm gonna have to give yours a try.

Westexas, gotta admit I am not a fan of the potato salad but seeing yours I may be converted soon. Heck, I might even try some of that evil weed you use in your smoker! All kidding aside that is some great looking and sounding potato salad. Will be showing this to the wife!
Pens, WTS can't be the one 'cause "they caught the tater, they caught tater salad". :D :D :D
;D ;D ;D

I would have said that too Caney only I did the Tator Tot Casserole when I took my first cooking class at 10 years old. Guy on the Food Network also does a few dishes with Tator Tots. They are a versatile food group. ;D
Looks wonderful Westexas!!
West Texas, we made this tonight, and it is great stuff!!!! WE really like to addition of the jalapenos to it.

Save those skins! Give them a gentle smoke for 40 minutes, toss in a plastic bag with butter ,garlic,Parmesan,a pinch of heat, and into the big easy or oven.
wts, I never did it mashed style but this looks great. Another to do soon recipe. Especially with potatoes, my favorite.
SS, you hit the nail on the head with the skins. :)
