Mom B joins us again for one of my favorites that I grew up eating. You can't have a cookout without coleslaw and we didn't just have one slaw, we always had 2! This is another recipe passed down from my grandparents, this time it was from Papa Bill, and his convenience store/grill/restaurant in South Carolina. I grew up loving the sweet slaw, and as I've gotten older, I have started eating more of the vinegar slaw. If you try them both, let me know if you have a favorite!

SWEET COLESLAW:
A must for bbq sandwiches, great on hotdogs, great with fried foods and seafood as well! This is the one and done! If you only make one make this one!!!

1 large Cabbage head, shaved or finely chopped.
1 1/4 cup Dukes Mayonaise
4 tsp distilled white vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 tsp mustard powder
1/3 cup grated or diced carrots
1/4 cup sweet relish
Salt to taste (start with around 1/4 tsp)
1/2 Tbsp Celery seed optional

You can mix ingredients all together in no particular order and stir to combine. I do it a bit different. My preferred method is to whisk the sugar, mustard, salt, and vinegar until sugar dissolves. Whisk in the Dukes mayo and relish, and this is your sweet dressing. When ready, or a few hours before serving, pour dressing over the chopped cabbage and carrots and stir to combine. If you refrigerate for around 2 hours it really makes it complete in my opinion!

PEPPER AND VINEGAR SLAW:
A tangy, pepper taste, I love with seafood, hotdogs, etc.

1 head cabbage shaved, 1/4 head purple cabbage optional.
1/2 cup mayo
1/2 cup white vinegar
1/2 tsp salt
Black Pepper to taste (start with 1/2 tsp but it will probably need more). You should be able to see the black pepper on the cabbage without searching for it, that's kind of when you know you are close to enough.

LIME AND PEPPER SLAW.
Perfect for grilled or blackened seafood, fish tacos, shrimp tacos etc. It tastes light and fresh.

1/2 head cabbage shaved
1/8 head purple cabbage shaved
1 Tbsp mayo
3 Tbsp white vinegar
Juice from one lime (around 2 Tbsp)
Salt to taste (start with 1/4 tsp)
Pepper to taste (start with 1/4 tsp
Optional* If you like cilantro, adding 1/4 cup of chopped fresh cilantro really sets this apart! Whitney can't stand cilantro, but I love it. A little research taught me that to a large percentage of people, cilantro tastes like soap. So for Whitney, I just add a few Tbsp of carrots for color!
