The typical diner coleslaw that we all know conjures images of blandness, and has given real coleslaw an undeserved bad rap. Eating real homemade coleslaw with barbecue is amazing, and this particular recipe is the best coleslaw that I have ever had. The secret is adding celery seeds to the slaw – it really makes a huge difference. Add some red cabbage for a color-perfect salad that stands out from the rest. The best part is that it’s super easy to make.
