This Dill Pickle Potato Salad puts a tangy, delicious twist on the classic! This side dish is a favorite for summer barbecues and potlucks, is a major crowd-pleaser among pickle lovers, and has a zippy, creamy dressing that keeps people coming back for more.
We pretty much ALWAYS add dill pickles to our potato salad. Sure, some people go the celery route, but I generally prefer it with pickles.
But this right here? This is not your average potato salad with a few dill pickles tossed in for a little tangy punch and crunch. No, friend.
This one is for pickle lovers only. People who order extra pickles on their burger. People who have multiple jars of pickles in their fridge, because the type of pickle they want depends on their mood. People who steal the pickles off their husband’s plate when he isn’t looking and eats it fast before he can snatch it back. (Not that I would know anything about that last one.)
Sure, creamy potatoes and a tasty mayo based dressing are very important to this potato salad, but the pickle are the real star of the show here. Don’t worry – they aren’t overwhelming or too much. This recipe is just very pickle forward, so you get bits of tangy, flavorful pickles in every bite.
