Coleslaw Topping for Pulled Meat Sandwiches image

I can remember my mother making this in the late 50's. She got the recipe from a local V.F.W. Auxiliary that she was a member of. My family enjoys it. If you try it and can improve on it, let us know. Thanks.

Time 30m

Yield 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/4 lbs finely chopped green cabbage
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
1 cup sweet relish
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup yellow mustard
1/4 cup vinegar (I use cider vinegar) or 1/4 cup cider vinegar (I use cider vinegar)
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons horseradish, to taste (optional)
1 (2 ounce) jar finely chopped pimientos, for color (optional)

Steps:

  • Chop cabbage, onion and pimento by whatever method you are comfortable with.
  • Put the chopped ingredients into a suitable sized bowl and add the sweet relish.
  • Combine the rest of the ingredients in a separate bowl and whisk until the sugar is somewhat dissolved.
  • Add this mixture to the cabbage mixture and combine well.
  • Can use right away or allow to set for a bit to let the ingredients meld a little better.
  • You want it to be a little bit 'juicy', not dry. The juice will work it's way down into the meat.
  • Scoop some onto a pulled meat sandwich (beef, pork or ham) and enjoy.
