My husband is from Memphis and has spent decades trying to make the perfect pulled pork sandwich – and the perfect pulled pork sandwich always includes the best creamy coleslaw. This one is a winner and the perfect complement to barbeque. You’ll love how easy this is to make.
This Creamy Coleslaw serves 10-12 as a side or 8-10 as a topper for pulled pork sandwiches. If you’ve never tried that combo, you should try it now. It’s amazing.

Definitely tastes better the longer you let it marinate. So yummy!
I agree! It’s my favorite coleslaw and so easy.
