3 pounds red potatoes (about 8 medium)
1 pound bacon strips, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
2-1/2 teaspoons salt

For dressing, saute onion in drippings over medium-high heat until tender, 4-6 minutes. Stir in flour until blended. Stir in sugars, salt and pepper. Gradually stir in vinegar and water; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Cook and stir until slightly thickened, 4-6 minutes.

Slice potatoes; place in a greased 5- or 6-qt. slow cooker. Top with dressing; sprinkle with bacon. Cook, covered, on low until heated through, 3-4 hours. If desired, sprinkle with chives.
