Re: Phil - last January - YES, finally someone mentioned BACON! IMHO a mashed potato bar without bacon is naked. Must be real bacon, fairly crisply cooked, and crumbled. We did potato bar for a family party of about 25 people last year and 3 lbs of bacon was not enough. Will be using at least 4 lbs this week.

Having this for my daughter’s engagement party. I went to a wedding who featured it and it was a huge hit; cheap and fun! Fortunately, I handpaint glass for a living and therefore have hundreds of martini glasses on hand. Going to paint each one different and make it even more special. Using unusual toppings, beef stroganoff; a meal in a glass….chili….chix pot pie ingredients; leaving out the potatoes….can’t hardly wait. I come up with a new topping daily!

I just found this old blog post and I love the idea. I had never thought about having a mashed pototo buffet - but I think the possibilities are endless. Being of both polish and irish decent I love the potato! You can do so many things with them and they are always great!

I am surprized not to have seen BACON here. Or is it just me? I am a confessed Bacon freak.

Try mixing in some ranch dressing in with your mashed potatoes before serving them… it gives the potato a great consistancy and they taste great!

I went to a fund raiser and they had a mashed potato bar with regular mashed potatoes, mashed sweet potatoes and chardonnay potatoes. They were all a big hit, especially the chardonnay potatoes. I am still trying to find a recipe for the chardonnay potatoes, they were absolutely delicious.

My daughter in law to be is doing this at the wedding. I thought she was nuts until I read this. Sounds so tasy, easy and different. I love the idea.
