Jim 'N Nick's Bar-B-Q Coleslaw

This sweet and tangy coleslaw is a favourite for Southerners familiar with the chain. All familiar ingredients just in the right proportions. You let your slaw marinate an hour for it to infuse the flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1 head green cabbage about 2 pounds
  • 1 ¼ cups apple cider vinegar See Note1 below
  • 1 cup sugar See Note1 below
  • 1 cup grated peeled carrots
  • 4 green onions thinly sliced
  • 4 Tbsps mayonnaise (I used ½ cup)
  • ½ teaspoon salt or to taste
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper or to taste

Instructions

  • Quarter cabbage and cut crosswise into ⅛ inch thick slices. You will need about 14 cups of sliced cabbage.
  • Transfer cabbage to a large bowl. Mix the sugar and vinegar well and pour over the cabbage. Cover and let stand 30 minutes, stir the cabbage up and let stand another 30 minutes.
  • Drain Cabbage. You can hold the cabbage up to 8 hours in the fridge at this point.
  • When ready to serve toss cabbage with carrots, onions, mayonnaise, salt and pepper.

Notes

Note 1:  I found I was draining off a lot of the marinade liquid so I reduce the vinegar and sugar by half and I find it is fine.
