We have a fabulous BBQ restaurant in our hometown called The Rib House. The smoked meats at this establishment -- which include pork, brisket, chicken, turkey breast, ham and sausage -- are fabulous, but what sets it apart from many well-known smoke houses is its side dishes. We've tried them all and there isn't one that we don't love. Red skinned mashed potatoes, coleslaw, bean salad, fruit salad, cheesy corn bake -- all are delicious. The Mac and Cheese Wedges are a favorite of my kids, but one of my favorites is the Spicy Chipotle Potato Salad. I've loved the smoky chipotle flavor of this salad since the first time I tasted it.
Now for the good news...
Here's fair warning.
This potato salad is not for the faint at heart.
It has a swift kick, but the spicy hotness doesn't linger...
and it is sooooo good!
Here's our version...
