Cajun Coleslaw

This coleslaw has just the right amount of kick that will make it complement your pulled pork, as well as fried chicken, without overpowering the flavor with spice. The grated onion will offer a more even distribution than if you diced an onion, which also means you will get more flavor from the onion in every bite of slaw.
