Memorial Day Potato Salad Recipe

This is Papa Richards' fave recipe.  We are going to our 2nd annual Memorial Day BBQ tonite and for the 2nd year in a row I am making this recipe.  It is from the Peach Tree in FBG.

10 cups peeled boiled potatoes (about 5 lbs.)
8 boiled eggs, coarsely chopped
10 ribs celery, diced
10 green onions, chopped
1 large yellow onion, diced
3 cups good quality mayonnaise (3 to 4 cups)
1/2 cup chopped pickled jalapenos
2 T. juice form jalapenos
1/4 cup chopped parsley
2 t. comino or cumin
1 T. black pepper
1 T. salt

Directions:
In large bowl, combine potatoes, celery and both onions. Combine remaining ingredients and add to potato mixture. Mix well and chill several hours or overnight. Serves 24.
