Treat your ingredients with care...
- Cabbage — Make sure to shred the cabbage finely for a better texture in the coleslaw.
- Mayonnaise — You can use light or vegan mayonnaise as a healthier alternative if desired.
- Hot dog buns — Choose soft and fresh buns to complement the flavors of the hot dog and coleslaw.
- Hot dogs — Opt for high-quality beef hot dogs for the best taste and texture.
- Apple cider vinegar — If you don't have apple cider vinegar, you can substitute it with white vinegar.
Tips & Tricks
- For added flavor, brush the hot dog buns with melted butter before toasting them on the grill.
- Customize your slaw dog by adding toppings such as diced onions, pickles, or mustard.
- If you prefer a sweeter coleslaw, add a tablespoon of honey to the dressing.
- To make the coleslaw ahead of time, prepare the dressing and store it separately from the shredded cabbage and carrots. Mix them together just before serving to maintain the freshness and crunchiness of the slaw.
- If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the hot dogs on a stovetop griddle or in a skillet.
Serving advice
Serve the Homestyle Slaw Dogs with a side of crispy french fries or potato chips for a complete and satisfying meal. Add a dollop of mustard or ketchup on top of the coleslaw for an extra burst of flavor.
Presentation advice
Arrange the Homestyle Slaw Dogs on a platter, with the vibrant coleslaw spilling over the sides of the hot dogs. Garnish with a sprinkle of freshly chopped parsley or a drizzle of hot sauce for an appealing presentation.
