Tennessee Coleslaw Recipes

MOM'S "HOT" COLESLAW

Steps:

• 1. Combine cabbage, carrot and onion in large bowl (preferably one with a cover).
• 2. Place vinegar, oil, all the sugar, salt, and mustard into saucepan. Bring to a full boil.
• 3. Pour hot vinegar mixture over cabbage. Toss well (I use a bowl with a lid, and "shake" as my version of tossing).
• 4. Chill, covered in the fridge. If you give it a toss every day, it will keep for a couple of weeks.

CORKY'S MEMPHIS-STYLE COLESLAW

Steps:

• Place cabbage, carrots, green pepper and onion into a large bowl. Set aside.
• In another bowl, mix together all of the remaining ingredients.
• Pour over the vegetables and toss well to combine. Cover the coleslaw and refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours for the flavors to meld.
• Stir again before serving.
• NOTE: When I use packaged cabbage, I use 2 packages and chop it a little finer with a chopping blade.

LEONARD'S BARBEQUE SWEET MUSTARD COLESLAW

Steps:

• Using a large mixing bowl, mix mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar and salt together until smooth. Next place the 5 pounds of finely chopped cabbage into a large mixing bowl. Then pour the liquid solution over the cabbage. Then add 1/2 cup diced sweet red bell pepper and 2 tablespoons of celery seed. Mix until all ingredients are evenly blended.

BBQ COLESLAW

• Stir in barbecue sauce, water, mayonnaise, dry mustard and Tabasco.
• Stir over low heat until everything dissolves.
• Combine carrots and cabbage in a large bowl.
