Party Potatoes

[Tenacious E]

You honkies eat the most disgusting foods ever.

I honestly think it is just a cold weather thing. If I was in hot and humid weather most of the year it would sound gross. On cold wintery days though, this stuff, cheese fondue, broccoli cheese soup, etc. just hits the spot.

You say that like it's a bad thing!

And I ain't taking culinary advice from someone who cut off their own sausage, NTTAWWT.

Yikes. “Cut off their own sausage”
Get at me when you can touch your toes.

And…….

Frank and beans fully intact, sir.

Man, even when I was skinny I couldn't touch my own toes --- poor flexibility.

I hope you know I was just teasing and have zero trans-phobia, etc.

But your party potato take is honestly godawful and wrong.

Also called cheesy potatoes in my world. Recipe is

• 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
  
  
  
• 2 cups sour cream
  
  
  
• 1 teaspoon salt
  
  
  
• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  
  
  
• 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
  
  
  
• ⅓ cup sliced green onions
  
  
  
• 1 (30 ounce) package Ore-Ida® Shredded Hash Brown Potatoes
  
  
  
• 2 cups crushed corn flakes cereal
  
  
  
• ¼ cup butter, melted
  
  

​

Directions​

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
   
   
2. Whisk together sour cream, condensed soup, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Stir in Cheddar cheese, green onions, and hash brown potatoes until well mixed. Spoon evenly into the prepared baking dish.
   
   
3. Mix crushed cereal and melted butter together in a medium bowl. Sprinkle evenly over the casserole.
   
   
4. Bake uncovered until hot and bubbly, 45 to 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

I use diced onion and not green onion. And Birch's modification looks super intriguing.

It's definitely not seasonal in my household. It goes so well with a nice brat or burger.

I could see the 4th and maybe memorial day because those are summer feast holidays. Other than that, yuck when it is hot out.

It's a Fourth of July staple in my circles.

I've seen recipes calling for thawed hash browns.

 

[Chewback]

That ain’t party potatoes, brah

Seriously. Sounds disgusting. Mashed potatoes for chrissake. Bleah.

 

[JWolf74]

I love party potatoes, but I have no need for the corn flakes on top. It adds nothing for me. Same thing when people try to put panko on top of Mac and cheese. Totally unnecessary.

I would argue crust on mac and cheese is a huge demerit. Will I still eat the shit out of it with crust? Absolutely. However, I will probably try to scrape it off before eating.

 

[RollingBallofButcherKnives]

**** it, I'm making some goddamn party potatoes on NYE. They'll be a great side dish for whatever I decide to load onto the smoker.

Make them ON the smoker?!

In the south, the mac and cheese crust is usually all cheese.

I'm glad we can get away from politics for a bit and get back to HORT's roots.

Leave out the green onions. Gross.

Melt a stick of butter. Add some dried minced onion and garlic powder (Penzey's has a delightful roasted garlic powder, fwiw). Add the can of condensed soup, sour cream, shredded cheese, shredded hashbrowns.

Put it in a slow cooker for like 5 hours.

Goes great with my BBQ meatballs. Also great for breakfast, late night snack, and lunch.

FFS @Tenacious E , "party potatoes" aren't just mashed potatoes that you bring to a party.

I am not a native Iowan. My introduction to party potatoes was with my inlaws consisting of generations of native Iowans. Their party potatoes look like this, with just enough butter so that it looks like it wants to pool on the surface, but it does not:

My wife uses diced white onion but green onion would be interesting. She uses the diced frozen hash browns instead of the shredded. Don't think she puts black pepper in it.

Shredded >>>>>>>> diced for cheesy potatoes

I bag of frozen meatballs - Rosina, the Italian style (red bag). Only Rosina or homemade will do.

Sauce is a rough measurement. I don't measure except the brown sugar (sort of).

Combine 2 cups ketchup, 1 cup brown sugar (dark if you have it), ~1tsp garlic powder, ~2tbsp dried minced onion, some beef bouillon (1/2-1 tsp?), ~1tsp Kitchen Banquet seasoning. A shot of bourbon or whiskey if you're feeling fancy.

The Penzeys roasted garlic powder also works well here.

Put meatballs in a slow cooker. Pour sauce over meatballs. Stir to combine. Minimum 4 hours, ideally 5-6. Don't bake - only slow cooker.

You can also use 2 bags of meatballs and use a whole container of ketchup...the 32 ounce, I think. Whatever Fareway has on sale for 2/$4 or 2/$5 sometimes. Don't forget to add more of the other stuff, obvs.

Do it. You won't regret it. You can easily make just about any side dish better by cooking it on the smoker while the meat rests.

 

[Whatsgoingonwitgyouguys0190]

I got to throw this out there because it just sounds good to me. Any of y’all ever dice up some nice smoke ham and throw it in the a party potatoes recipe?

 

[McLovin32]

I’ve done it with baked beans before. And it was glorious.

I’ve done this in the slow cooker. Except not ham, I used kielbasa.

Facts. My mom uses shedded and my MIL uses diced.

More of a bacon guy, myself.

Do you give your MIL the "the only thing you've ever done with your life is make a hot daughter. That's it!" line from Talladega Nights?

 

[JWolf74]

Baked beans, party potatoes, Mac and cheese, Thanksgiving stuffing, it's all great with smoke.

 

[TexSkills]

I've had it with both shredded and diced and I like the diced better. Hell they're both good. To each their own.

We eat this for supper often. We crush up Ruffel chips on top instead of cornflakes.
