This finely chopped slaw has just the right balance of sweet and tart. It goes on top of the pulled pork, not alongside it.
- 2 1/2 lb green cabbage, cored and cut into 3-inch chunks, then finely chopped or shredded
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1 large green bell pepper, finely chopped
- 1 large carrot, coarsely grated
- 1 1/4 cups mayonnaise
- 1/3 cup cider vinegar
- 2 teaspoons sugar
-
Toss all vegetables in a large bowl with 1 tsp each of salt and pepper.
-
Whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, and sugar, then toss with slaw. Chill, covered, stirring occasionally, at least 1 hour (for vegetables to wilt and flavors to blend).
Cooks’ note: Slaw can be chilled up to 1 day.
