Coleslaw, Yummy with Barbecue Pork Sandwiches

When I was growing up coleslaw was one of my least favorite foods. My mom liked tart tasting coleslaw so she always used a lot of vinegar. I prefer mine to be a little on the sweet side. Here are coleslaw recipes for your summer meals.

Watkins Coleslaw
2 cups shredded cabbage
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Watkins Coleslaw Seasoning
3 tablespoons vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar

Combine all ingredients and mix well. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Makes 4 servings.

I use Miracle Whip instead of mayonnaise and I add shredded carrots or green pepper.

Here are some other recipes that sound good. One has a creamy dressing; the other has an oil and vinegar dressing.

Coleslaw
4 cups finely shredded or chopped cabbage
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup dairy sour cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise or salad dressing
1/2 teaspoon Watkins Seasoning Salt
1/2 teaspoon Watkins Dry Mustard
Dash of Watkins Pepper

Combine cabbage and onion in a large bowl. Blend remaining ingredients; pour over cabbage and toss. Sprinkle with paprika. Makes 6 to 8 servings.

Old-Fashioned Cabbage Salad
4 cups finely shredded or chopped cabbage
1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
1 teaspoon minced onion
3 tablespoons salad oil
1/3 cup white vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon Watkins Pepper
1/2 teaspoon Watkins Dry Mustard
1/2 teaspoon Watkins Celery Salt

Place cabbage, green pepper, and onion in a bowl. Mix all ingredients and pour over cabbage mixture. Cover and refrigerate. Drain cabbage before serving. Makes 6 servings.

Barbecued Pork Sandwiches
Boneless pork roast
1 cup beef or vegetable broth
1 onion, chopped
Bottle of your favorite barbecue sauce (Watkins features two barbecue sauce concentrates – Original and Mesquite)
Rolls or buns

Remove all traces of fat from pork roast. Brown slightly on all sides in a dutch oven. Place roast and broth in slow cooker and cook for 6 to 8 hours on low heat. Carefully remove roast from slow cooker. Pour fat and broth from slow cooker. Shred roast and return to slow cooker. Add onion and barbecue sauce. The amount of sauce you use depends on the size of the roast. You might use more than one bottle of sauce. Cook for one hour and serve on rolls or buns with coleslaw.
