    The one I make is Robert Irvine's from Food Network.  It's simple and good.

    I've never made this for pulled beef, but I make it for pulled pork sandwiches.  It's a recipe I saw on the forum many years ago.  I wish I could remember who posted it.

    1 large head of cabbage, finely shredded
    1-3 jalapeños, finely chopped (depends on your taste and size of jalapeños)
    1 medium sweet onion, finely chopped
    2-3 carrots, grated 


    Dressing:
    1 cup sugar
    1 teaspoon salt
    2/3 cup olive oil
    1 teaspoon dry mustard
    1-2 teaspoon celery seed
    1 cup apple cider vinegar

    Combine coleslaw vegetable ingredients:  cabbage, jalapeño, onions, and carrots in a large serving bowl.
    

In a saucepan over medium heat, combine dressing ingredients; bring to a boil.
    Simmer, stirring, until sugar is dissolved; pour over vegetables and toss well. 


    Cover, refrigerate, and stir every hour or so.  I think it gets better the longer it marinates.

    Is this mild or on the hot side??  Thanks

    Hey, Charlie Tuna: it all depends on how many jalapeños you use.

    We take the easy way....Dole has a shredded Cole Slaw Kit with the dressing already in the bag. It is very good.

    Ok, I have a slaw recipe that I created somehow at work a few years back.  It sounds kinda weird but is awesome.   I call it my Zesty Slaw.

     

    I use fine cut prepackaged slaw.

    Mayo to get it wet to normal slaw consistancy

    Sub dressing ( There are different brands. The oil/vinegar spice stuff)

    Chalua hot sauce.  Add this and the sub dressing liberaly to taste.
