You Need a Side for Your Pulled Pork

May 9, 2009 by

Ok, so you made pulled pork from scratch, along with my sweet and tangy BBQ sauce.

But you feel like I left you hanging!

You've got the meat ... you've got my baked beans recipe ... the cornbread ... but what about the coleslaw!?

Not to worry!  As I always promise, I've got you covered.

There are so many great coleslaw recipes out there, ranging from tangy, to tart, and even spicy.  But this recipe is for a classic simple and sweet coleslaw.  

Very similar to what you would find in most barbeque restaurants.

So the next time you want to go all out with your barbeque, know that you're covered.  You have the perfect recipe to round out your menu.

Until our next meal,
