- Place the whole chopped onion in the pan and cook with the bacon grease. Stir occasionally. They are done once you the onions start to become slightly clear (translucent).
- Add in the water, vinegar, cooked bacon, Mrs. Dash, & celery seed. Mix well and let it simmer on low heat for about 20 minutes.
- The potatoes will be done cooking once the skin looks like it is starting to peel off. Remove from heat and remove potatoes one at a time with tongs and place in strainer. Let them cool off slightly for about 5 minutes. You can either keep the skins on or easily peel them off while the potatoes are hot.
- In a large bowl, start assembling the potatoes. Cut the potato in half and set one half aside. Cut the other half into half circular pieces about 1/4 inch thick (more or less according to your liking). Place each piece flat into the bowl making the first layer. After the layer is complete, sprinkle a slight layer of seasoned salt. Continue making more layers and after each layer is completely, sprinkle with seasoned salt.
- After all layers are complete, put one last sprinkle of seasoned salt on top. Pour the completed sauce on top of that. Carefully fold the potatoes & sauce together. Cover with aluminum foil & let it sit for about an hour before serving.
