Creamy Coleslaw
Many barbecue aficionados argue that a barbecue isn’t a barbecue without a big bowl of cool, crisp coleslaw on the table. Indeed, nothing tastes better alongside a batch of spicy barbecued ribs. If you turn up your nose at too-sweet slaws, this one is for you. It gets its subtle sweetness from an unexpected source—grated apple.
