Traditional Coleslaw
Prep Time:
10 mins.
Yield:
about 1 quart
This well balanced slaw is based on an old Southern family recipe. Feel free to add shredded carrots or purple cabbage, chopped green onions or red onion, or a handful of chopped herbs. Because cabbage has such a natural affinity for pork, it’s the perfect topping for barbecue sandwiches or the classic Slaw Dog.
