    Classic Cole Slaw

    Source of Recipe

    From "Bon Appétit, Y'all" by Virginia Willis

    Recipe Introduction

    "There are three kinds of Southern slaws: barbecue slaw, cole slaw, and yellow slaw. Barbecue slaw is a western North Carolina tradition made with chopped cabbage, pungent vinegar, and red pepper. Cole slaw is what most people in Georgia consider slaw—primarily cabbage and mayonnaise. Yellow, or mustard, slaw is more commonly found in South Carolina and Eastern North Carolina (its main ingredients are cabbage and mustard). Try a spoonful of this slaw on pulled pork sandwiches for a sloppy, glorious treat."
