Sizzle up your side of slaw…
Coleslaw is one of those sides that is just as tasty next to summer barbecue as it is on a thick deli-meat sandwich. And – depending on that dish – sometimes a little extra kick is in order. For those moments, go for an Old Bay coleslaw. The paprika and cayenne in Old Bay add heat, and you can increase it even further by adding in some diced red chilies of your choice. We’re preferable to red jalapeño or Fresno peppers here. Both ratchet things up quite nicely and Fresno chilies add a little smokiness to boot.
