See last year's post for some history and a look at Addison Fire Station No.1's German Skillet Potatoes. This year, the Station made good on their promise to feed the starving masses more efficiently...
^ That there is one slammin' skillet!
This should keep the lines down a bit. However, our group wondered if something was missing from the recipe? We'll give it another shot in a bit, as in the past these potatoes were very much worth the wait.
Addendum: More pics...

, it was paid for with Cold Hard Cash, and that's that.
They are missing something. Way too salty last night and oilier than I remember. But you are exactly right that something is missing from the recipe. One thing that stands out is that their are not nearly as many onions as in years past.
Maybe they were out some ingredients on opening night? I will be first in line today to find out! I even bought the large german stein that is begging for a refill of lager!

This doesn't the least look like Spaetzle and Meatballs (to be fair, there's a dish called "Linsen und Spatzen", in which the Spaetzle dumplings are made super-sized and served with small pork belly balls, so it's - if not in execution - somehow loosely pseudo-German), more like Spaghbol. Onions on Spaetzle are, by the by, never sauteed and always fried (duckfat or rendered bacon fat being the obvious candidates).
