Carrot and celery slaw

This carrot and celery slaw is a tangy and delicious alternative to traditional coleslaw. In fact, I don’t even make coleslaw with cabbage any more — I just make this! (Although, you could make this recipe with cabbage if you really wanted to.) I prefer to make it in the morning, or a day ahead, to give the flavors a chance to blend. Frank’s RedHot sauce gives it a little spice, and if you really want to up the buffalo flavor, I recommend sprinkling a little blue cheese on top before serving.

Recipes Side Dishes

Southern-style greens

These greens are, hands-down, our favorite barbecue side dish. They are savory, easy to make, and flexible — you can use either collard or kale greens (just don’t use spinach, it gets mushy). Also, they’re just as good reheated the next day, in the rare case that you have any leftover!
