Slow-Cooker German Potato Salad Recipe.

Ingredients:

3 pounds red potatoes (about 8 medium)
1 pound bacon strips, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
3 TBSPs all-purpose flour
2/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
2-1/2 TSPs salt
1/2 TSP pepper
1/3 cup cider vinegar
2 cups water
Minced fresh chives, optional

Recipe Instructions:

Place potatoes in a 6qt stockpot; add water to cover.
Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat; cook, uncovered, just until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
Drain; cool slightly.

In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp, stirring occasionally.
Using a slotted spoon, remove bacon to paper towels, reserving 3 TBSPs drippings.

For dressing, saute onion in drippings over medium-high heat until tender, 4-6 minutes.
Stir in flour until blended.
Stir in sugars, salt and pepper.
Gradually stir in vinegar and water; bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
Cook and stir until slightly thickened, 4-6 minutes.

Slice potatoes; place in a greased 5- or 6qt slow cooker.
Top with dressing; sprinkle with bacon.
Cook, covered, on low until heated through, 3-4 hours.
If desired, sprinkle with chives.
