recipe reviews for:

Dave's Coleslaw

“This is a recipe I have worked on for a while and I think it is just about right. It goes well with just about anything from fried fish to hamburgers, and is to die for on a pulled pork sandwich. If you are going to use it with Q, reduce the amount of dressing you add to the cabbage so it's not too sloppy. For best results refrigerate over night to allow flavors to marry.”

Also a lover of good coleslaw, I have to say that this is truly one of my favorites ever! Even my finicky kids love it with pulled pork sandwiches or even alone. I did not change anything from the recipe, and loved it!

First time i ever made coleslaw in my life -- i was a little scepticle,however i took this to a family get together and had to give the recipe to 4 people!It truly is delicious -- my girlfriend says "its to die for" i added an extra clove of garlic and 1 extra teaspoon of salt,everything else was straight from the recipe -- you cant go wrong!! love it

I must admit I was little disappointed. I made a fabulous pulled pork and wanted this to go along but I found the recipe really soupy and washed out. I will try it again with some modifications from the other reviews. I hope it will turn out better next time.

This was very good. I made it for my daughters birthday party and everyone loved it. I thought there was a little too much onion. Thanks for the recipe

This stuff is awesome. It's not heavy and too creamy like some deli cole slaws. I substituted bread-and-butter for the dill and dijon for yellow mustard just because that's what we had. I'm definitely holding on to this recipe.

This coleslaw was extremely pickely and that is saying a lot because I like pickles. Something about the creaminess, and sweetness along with the pickles did not agree with my tastebuds. To me, the ingredients did not mesh together well.

Great recipe- thanks! I used bagged coleslaw cabbage to make it easier. I also subbed sour cream for buttermilk just because it's what I had in my kitchen. Still 5 stars!

This is a great recipe! My husband loves coleslaw and is always searching for a good recipe. He said this is the best he has ever had. We all loved it. Tastes great with pork. Note: Makes enough dressing for two batches. Use sparingly. Delicious!

DELICIOUS!! I didn't have buttermilk so I used a mixture of mayo, sour cream, plain yogurt, and milk. Next time I may try a mixture of dill and sweet pickles since my husband likes his coleslaw really sweet.

This is really a great recipe. Prepared as is will be great for almost anyone although I prefer a little less buttermilk (so it's a little less slopply) and I go a little heavy on the pepper.

This is very good! I did add a little bit more pickle juice, probably a total of 4 TBS. It turned out very good. I will be making this again and again.

I'm picky about coleslaw. This was intriguing, but it ended up too juicy and one flavor was overpowering - maybe the green onions? I think I'll stick to my mom's recipe.
