My Memphis friend taught me this version, and it’s been on repeat since!
Ever been pulled into the heartwarming embrace of Southern comfort food? That’s what Memphis Style Coleslaw does to you.
It’s a zesty twist to the classic coleslaw we all know, taking a cue from the vibrant flavors of Memphis BBQ.
With its tangy kick, it’s the perfect counterpart to anything grilled or smoked – basically, it’s a barbecue’s best friend. Whether you’re dressing up a pulled pork sandwich or just crave something with a bit of a twang, this coleslaw is your go-to. It’s like a little Southern soirée in your mouth!
When it comes to sides, Memphis Style Coleslaw is incredibly versatile.
It truly shines next to slow-cooked meats, think smoky ribs or juicy brisket.
If you’re going for a lighter meal, this coleslaw makes a zippy companion for grilled fish or chicken. And for a full Memphis experience, pile it onto a pulled pork sandwich.
The tangy crunch of the slaw with the tender pork? Divine.
