1/2 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 small head cabbage, finely shredded
1 small carrot, finely shredded
Whisk buttermilk, mayonnaise, sugar, lemon juice, vinegar, salt, and pepper together in a bowl.
Toss cabbage and carrot together in a large bowl. Drizzle dressing over the cabbage mixture; toss to coat.
Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, at least 30 minutes.
I added a fresh chopped tomato just as I do when I make my regular slaw which I think makes it more attractive and flavorful.
This dressing is very tasty, and I would make it again.
I like a good coleslaw. The idea of adding a chopped tomato to it sounds good, I’ve never had it that way. I always have to have coleslaw when I make pulled pork sandwiches. I love to put a big mound of creamy slaw on top of the pulled pork when I make the sandwich. It is really good.
Yes I agree, I like a good coleslaw as well as the idea of throwing in chopped tomato. That’s if it is a side. But for me, I was introduced to pulled pork with the slaw in the sandwich. But my wife thinks I’m weird to do it. Of course I’m weird. Too much time in the pit, over the stove, grilling, alters one’s perspective – ha ha ha
My wife says I am weird also, but she does like slaw on a BBQ sandwich. I first saw it done in Tennessee since many BBQ shacks put coleslaw on the BBQ sandwich unless you asked them to hold it. I have always said if you like it do it, and don’t be concerned about what others think.
