Sweet & Spicy Coleslaw

This recipe is another one of those tweak it to the way you want it. When I first put the dressing together I thought it was too sweet and didn't pack much punch. By adding some Vietnamese Chili Garlic sauce and some more vinegar, it became pretty damn good.

Sweet and Spicy Coleslaw

2 pounds green cabbage
4 carrots
1 small yellow onion
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup yellow mustard
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar to start, add more to taste
2 tablespoons Vietnamese chili garlic sauce, add more to taste (I use Huy Fong brand)
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste


Cut cabbage in quarters and remove core. Peel carrots and onion and cut into pieces that would fit through the feed tube of a food processor. Fit food processor with the large-holed grater attachment and push cabbage, carrots, and onions through feed tube to grate. In a large bowl, toss vegetables together.
In another medium bowl, prepare the coleslaw dressing by whisking together the mayonnaise, mustard, cider vinegar, sugar, chili garlic sauce, and cayenne. Toss dressing with the cabbage mixture, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 2 hours before serving.

This looks like a good one. I usually make my KFC coleslaw clone but I'm going to try this.

I thought it was pretty good, the guys at work cleaned it up when I made it.

Yummy ThumbUp
If I doubled up on the Protonics I might be able to give this tasty looking Mixture a whirl. At least once but me thinks would be worth the risk.

No offense Mike as you know I'm a HUGE fan of the Big Green Egg (had one from 2001 till the Divorce...;)) AND your expertise putting it to good use but,,,
Is there anything those Guys at Work won't lay waste to? :D

P.s. please tell us you shared some of this with your poor ol' starving Pappy :laugh:

The guys like my cooking, there are times they bring stuff in and have me cook for them, and yes they lay waste to pretty much everything.

I've hooked my dad up BBQ, he isn't wasting away:D.
