To busy to cook, tried a BBQ I never tried before - coleslaw question?
OK today was busy and neither of us wanted to make dinner tonight and leftover lasagna just did not sit right with my hunger. Checked our restaurant delivery book (independent service that delivers from like 30-40 places) and saw a BBQ place I had not yet tried. Ordered some pork ribs and they offered two sides along with some garlic bread. Well asked for baked beans and some coleslaw. Yup nothing out of ordinary yet.
Food arrived, smelled like BBQ all was as expected. Nowhere as good as homemade BBQ but decent for this town. Beans also were good, sweet and smokey. That leaves the coleslaw. Now I must admit I have always just had the shredded cabbage, some purple cabbage, carrots, (raisins icky), and some mayo based sauce. Well this stuff was just the cabbage, carrots, purple cabbage, seasoning, and some sort of vinegar base - no mayo.
It was a first, never tried it that way. Anyone know if this is common anywhere? What is your preference? I have always loved coleslaw (minus raisins). Found this vinegar based one very good, like up there with the good mayo based ones I have had if not better. I am now very curious and wish I would of gotten a pint of it instead of a small side (got pint of beans instead).
Coleslaw comments, what about the base choices, or info?
