Goody+Girl+Championship+Potatoes

Ingredients
 * 1 package dry form crab boil (recommended: Zatarain's)
 * 3 pounds red potatoes
 * 1 pound thick-cut bacon, diced
 * 1 cup diced red onion
 * 1 tablespoon minced garlic
 * 1/4 pound butter, at room temperature
 * 1/4 pound finely shredded Cheddar
 * 1 green onion, chopped
 * 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
 * 1/2 teaspoon paprika
 * Salt and pepper
 * 3/4 cup sour cream

Directions
 * Fill a 6-quart pot 2/3 full of water; add the crab boil and mix until blended. Cut the potatoes in half and slice into 3/8-inch thick pieces.
 *  (This can be done ahead of time; cover the potatoes with ice water until ready to cook.)
 * <span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12px;">Add the potatoes to the pot. Bring water to a boil and cook the potatoes until fork-tender.
 * <span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12px;">While the potatoes are cooking: in a medium saute pan on medium heat, cook bacon until crispy; remove and drain on a paper towel.
 * <span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12px;">Add red onion to bacon grease; cook until caramelized. Just before onions are done, add garlic and cook until lightly brown.
 * <span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12px;">In a bowl, place butter, 1/2 the cheese, 1/2 the bacon bits, 1/2 the green onions, the cooked red onions and garlic, cayenne, paprika, salt, pepper, and sour cream; mix together thoroughly.
 * <span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12px;">Strain potatoes and add to bowl; let stand for a few minutes or until cheese starts to melt. Fold ingredients together, trying not to break up the potatoes excessively. Top with remaining cheese, bacon, and green onions.
