We used pork bacon and left out the celery (chef's personal preference). We love the bleu cheese, sour cream and red potatoes together, but ended up with some things a little out of balance: too much liquid, too much vinegar. All that said, it's rich and full-flavored and will not go to waste! Made for PAC Spring 2013
