8 red potatoes
1 diced onion
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
3/4 cup white sugar
4 slices bacon
3/4 cup cider vinegar
Add potatoes to a pot (DO NOT PEEL YET) and cover with water--cook on medium until potatoes are tender. Drain and peel potatoes, then cut into bite sized pieces. In a serving bowl, add the hot potato pieces--cover and set aside to keep warm. In a skillet, fry the bacon until well done--remove bacon but keep the bacon grease--dry the bacon on paper towels. Add diced onions, salt, pepper, vinegar and white sugar to the bacon grease--stir and heat making sure all sugar has dissolved. Crumble the bacon into pieces and add to the vinegar mixture in the skillet--stir. Pour the entire skillet mixture over the top of the warm potatoes--toss to coat.
