Replace the sugar with pure maple syrup!

I would leave sugar out all together add shredded green apple, add micro chopped jalapeno too

 

[Charny]

add micro chopped jalapeno too

"Who used my coffee grinder for jalapenos!?"

Perfect timing - doing a pork picnic today and was planning on making coleslaw. While Blue Plate is my go-to, I have 1/2 gallon of Kewpie that needs to be used. I'll be trying this recipe.

Please post up the results. I've not tried Kewpie but hear it's a Chef's Choice

- 2/3 cup sweet pickle relish

Nope, sorry. Hard pass.

Nope, sorry. Hard pass.

I was thinking jalapeno relish

Nope, sorry. Hard pass.

This is exactly what got my attention. It's genius. Whether it's good or not, well see but I'm definitely giving it a whirl to my slaw recipe.

Haven't done it in a long time but I used to add chopped spicy kimchi and pickled ginger to my normal slaw ala Heirloom Bbq in Atlanta. Only ate it once but it made an impact on how flavorful slaw could be with smoked pork

It's very sweet. I wouldn't use it with sweeter cabbages (Tendersweet, Farao, Omero, etc), but it shouldn't be an issue if using pre-shredded coleslaw mix - it's usually pretty bitter and my guess is that's what this recipe is designed around.

It does cut through vinegary sauces, so it will work ok in our household. My finishing sauce for butt is typically just hot sauce and apple cider vinegar. I think it would be sugar overload with a sweet sauce, but we don't do sweet sauces.

Blue Plate would have been a better choice than Kewpie. Blue Plate has a tang that would knock that sweet edge down a bit. I think Dukes would work too.

I did a 50-50 split of sweet and dill relish and that was also a mistake. The dill relish stands out like a sore thumb.

 

[Fooball]

The relish is what made me pass, 2/3 of a cup?!?

I would cut back on the sugar too and add super thin sliced celery and carrot sticks. I'm also a fan of throwing in a little poppy seed salad dressing and powdered ranch dip mix.

But then.....you have a whole new recipe! :doh:

 

[Curt.P]

It's a double batch, so I don't think it's that much relish. I had to break out the full size steam table pan to mix it - it's a lot of slaw. It is getting better the longer it sits in the refrigerator.

I think next time I'll make krautsalat or freezer slaw.

Good starter recipe.I like slaw a little more fine textured than storebought shredded cabbage slaw.I usually give it a chop to make it finer or toss in in a food processor and just give it a few pulses.

Dole Angel Hair coleslaw if you're looking for pre-shredded.

Made it this past weekend and it was fantastic!

About the only time I use an Ulu is chopping cabbage for sale. There are easue ways, but ----I get to use my Ulu

Made one yesterday for pulled pork sandwiches. Think it's in Big Bob Gibson book, maybe?, bag of slaw mix, 1/4 cup each of vinegar and sugar, dash of salt. Worked good.

 

[WilliamKY]

I tried this recipe yesterday with one deviation. I cut the sugar back to 1/4 cup. It was tasty but still a bit too sweet. I think the sugar could be omitted completely or cut back to maybe a tablespoon. The onion and relish add a nice flavor profile. Ultimately I still prefer my simple slaw.

Shoulder said for slaw, not for sale.

My spell check doesn't like slaw )
