Preparation

  1. Boil or steam the potatoes until they are just tender. Let them cool slightly, then cut them into pieces. Take it easy and follow the steps at a leisurely pace – that way, barbecuing stays fun.

  2. Light the barbecue with the XCelsius BBQ lighter and place the Dutch oven over a medium heat. Time to get the barbecue going. Give it plenty of time to stabilise before you carry on.

  3. Gently fry any bacon, onion or other seasonings in the Dutch oven. Keep an eye on them and only stir when necessary, so that they brown nicely.

  4. Mix the potatoes with the seasoning and add the dressing as per the recipe. Mix everything together thoroughly, taking your time, as this is where the flavour develops.

  5. Let the salad warm through briefly or serve it lukewarm. Stir gently so that the potatoes remain whole. Keep a close eye on the preparation and carry on calmly following the recipe.

  6. Taste and season with salt, pepper and fresh herbs. Keep things relaxed and take your time following the steps – that way, barbecuing stays fun.

  7. Time to sit down to dinner. Serve up the dish, grab a cold drink to go with it, and enjoy – from all of us at XCelsius.
