Creamy Coleslaw with Pickles Recipe



This is my first time making coleslaw. It's just not something I think of making often. Well, I decided to make some pulled pork sandwiches, and I knew I had to come up with a coleslaw recipe to go on the sandwiches. I also remembered my Dad saying he loves Popeye's coleslaw because it has pickles in it, so I knew that was gonna be my special ingredient. 

I absolutely love how this recipe turned out. I initially wanted to use Miracle Whip, but then after I got home from grocery shopping, and realized I had none. I had to go with mayo. It was fabulous and turned out just the way I imagined it would. The flavors are all great together and it topped my sandwich perfectly. This is a great recipe to bring to your next barbeque! Enjoy!!

  9. An acquaintance uses dill pickle juiced in his cole slaw rather than vinegar. It's delicious! Said his mom never wasted anything, even pickle juice.
