Steps:
- Clean the potatoes and boil them with the peel on. Boil them until the peel begins to crack, that's how you'll know they're done.
- Drain the potatoes and set them aside to cool until you can handle them.
- Hard boil the 18 eggs, and then remove them from the water until they're cool. This step can also be done in advance if you want to save some waiting time for them to cool.
- Peel the potatoes, then chop them into bite size pieces (about 1 inch cubes). Place the chopped potato in a very large bowl.
- Once the boiled eggs have cooled enough to peel, chop them into small pieces. Add the chopped pieces to the potatoes.
- Chop the onion and the pickles into very small, minced pieces. Grandma always made us do this by hand, but you can do it with a food chopper if you're pressed for time.
- Add the pickles and the onions to the potatoes and eggs.
- Add in and mix the miracle whip, mayo, yellow mustard, and salt and then use a large spoon to mix until it's all incorporated.
- Cover the potato salad and place it in the fridge for 24 hours, or overnight if you waited til last minute.
- If the potato salad seems very dry the next day, it's because the potatoes absorbed some of the liquid. Add up to half a cup more of miracle whip or mayo (whatever you prefer) to help re-moisten it.

Steps:
- 1. Peel potatoes and cut into 1 inch cubes; place in a 5 quart pot, cover with water (I add some salt to water); boil for approximately 7 to 8 minutes (time may vary so check for firmness around 5 to 6 minutes, don't over cook and don't under cook, you don't want mashed potato salad and you don't want under cooked potatoes; drain and rinse in cold water; drain well.
- 2. While potatoes are draining and cooling off; combine chopped onion and eggs; set aside.
- 3. In a separate bowl, combine pickles, celery, salt and pepper, mustard and mayonnaise.
- 4. Once potatoes are cooled; add chopped onion and eggs; fold together gently; add mayonnaise mixture and combine gently with other ingredients; if salad seems like you don't need all the mayonnaise mixture; don't use it all, if salad seems to dry, add additional mayonnaise.
- 5. Garnish top with sliced boiled eggs and sprinkle with paprika if desired.
- 6. NOTE: This was an excellent choice for a side to go with https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/diane-smith/sweet-jalapeno-bourbon-ribs-dee-dees/pork and https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/diane-smith/sweet-cheese-biscuits-dee-dees/biscuits.

BEST CLASSIC POTATO SALAD
Creamy, tangy, and crunchy, with a hint of spice and sweetness from pickles, this reminds me of my grandmother's potato salad served every Easter or any time we had barbecue. She always dotted it with olives for a finishing touch and a perfect briny addition. This is the best classic version of good old-fashioned, Southern-style potato salad. Not too mayonaissey with just the right amount of tang! Serve with grilled or smoked meats as the perfect side dish.
