This Hot German potato salad is loaded with crispy bacon and it’s more on the vinegar side than the creamy side, and we love it!

I LOVE this recipe for Hot German Potato Salad. I’m not sure if it’s the vinegar or the bacon, but both make this one of my favorite things to eat whether hot or cold straight out of the fridge. Yum!
