NOTE: Quantities of ingredients vary with personal taste. For jail BBQ's I use a whole bag of potatoes (10-13), a dozen eggs, 2 jars of pimentos, 1 1/2 cups each of celery, onion and pickles, and the base sauce recipe x4.

- Chill in refrigerator for several hours.

- Prior to serving, sprinkle with paprika and black olives and/or other favorite garnishes.

Ron isn't certain where he got this recipe but thinks it was from grandma Cramer, or at least a portion of it, as she made lots of potato salad......and it was very good.
