4. Place your potatoes on the sheet and drizzle with the olive oil. Liberally season with your favorite seasoning. Salt and pepper are the classic seasonings, although I'm partial to a Cajun seasoning salt. The choice is yours! Garlic, oregano, cayenne, thyme, you choose.

5. With clean hands, gently toss and turn the potatoes so each one gets their fair share of the seasoning. Spread them out in an even layer, hopefully not touching.

6. Bake for approximately 25 minutes; check on them halfway through and turn them over so each side gets a chance to crisp directly on the bottom of the baking sheet. Also note: We all have peculiarities and personalities with our ovens. Be sure to stay true to that and turn your baking sheet around if your oven heats hot in the back, or switch from the lower rack to the top. Make adjustments.

7. While the potatoes are baking, make the dipping sauce. And if I were you, I would double this and use it for dipping things in the future. Chicken nuggets, pan-fried pork chops, steak fingers, etc. We always have a small container of this in our fridge ready at a moment's notice.

8. In a small bowl, combine the mayo, mustard, honey, BBQ sauce and quick squeeze of lemon juice which heightens the flavor just a touch. Mix to combine and pop it in the fridge until the potatoes are done.
