Classic Coleslaw

May 27, 2024

This easy coleslaw recipe is the answer to your question, “What can I make that’s crunchy and a little creamy, but has enough vinegary pizzaz to keep things light and bright?”

It’s precisely the colorful and cooling side your hot chicken dinner needs, which makes sense, considering the recipe was created by the brain trust at the iconic Hattie B’s in Nashville. (Though this homemade coleslaw is also excellent with pulled pork sandwiches, hot dogs, and just about anything else you might enjoy at a backyard barbecue or potluck.)
