I was born at home. I picked cotton. We always grew a fall garden. It included cabbage. My momma made coleslaw with the cabbage. She added carrots. One head of cabbage will make enough slaw to feed 15 people. Ive chopped enough for up to 100. I'm really good at chopping cabbage for coleslaw, but I don't anymore.
I now buy the bag of coleslaw mix from Walmart. I have a little jar. I put equal parts of vinegar, mayo, and oil in there. I like my slaw sweet. I sprinkle the top of the mix with salt, black pepper, cayenne, and then with a generous amount of sugar. Toss and its a done deal. It gets better as the days go by. You?

My wife makes it when we have it. It is one of the things I have never made. She buys a bag of coleslaw mix and goes from there.

We use chopped green cabbage, purple cabbage and carrots. For the dressing we start with Marzetti Slaw Mix and add finely chopped sweet onions, salt, pepper, cayenne, garlic powder and rice wine vinegar. The rice wine vinegar gives it a slightly sweet taste.

we usually just buy the bags at HEB or Walmart ... I will fill a cereal bowl about 2/3 full of the slaw, chop 1-2 roma tomatoes, finely sliced sweet onion and top with salsa (prefer homemade) ... makes for a great salad. Occasionally, I will use HEB garlic Italian or a balsamic vinegar instead of the salsa.

I love coleslaw. Prefer sweeter over vinegar. I have an Asian style coleslaw I really enjoy too. I should probably post that recipe soon.

It has a great flavor and the perfect sweetness. You're probably the best cook on this forum and your recipe would be appreciated by all!

Cole slaw fan here also. I like sweet and the vinegar base, but prefer the vinegar more. The sweet just gets too sweet for me.
Recipe I use most often is out of a Paula Dean book cabbage, salt, sugar, pepper, mayo, apple cider vinegar. Its still a little too sweet for my taste, but the best recipe I have come by.
