CHILI SLAW DAWGS
This is one of my all-time favorite Atlanta eats: the chili slaw dog, in the style of the Varsity drive-in theater. That combination of crunchy cole slaw, crispy-skinned hot dog, and spice chili is the best in the world.

Steps:
- Make the chili sauce: In a small saucepan, with the heat off, add the beef, chile powder, onion, garlic, tomato paste, salt, pepper, and beer. Stir to break up the beef. Add ½ cup water and stir again. Turn the heat on medium/high, bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook 20- 25 minutes (add remaining water if necessary).
- For the slaw: In a food processor, pulse the cabbage until finely chopped. Remove the blade and sprinkle salt and sugar onto the cabbage. Stir and let rest to draw the liquid out of the cabbage, 20 minutes.
- Assemble the dawg: Drain the liquid from the cabbage and add the mayonnaise. Stir, check for salt and set aside. In a skillet, over low heat, add canola oil and the hot dogs. Cook until warmed through with a crispy, crackly skin. Fill each bun with a hot dog, then a layer of mustard, then a layer of chili, then onion, then slaw. This order is important! Serve immediately.
COLE SLAW ON HOT DOGS
I have been eating these since my childhood. Normally I make these with leftover slaw so the ratio of slaw may be off. The recipe was inspired by Recipe #262230 which was posted by Chef rickoholic83. The dressing makes a wonderful dressing for coleslaw. You may have leftover dressing, it can also be served on a fruit salad or lettuce wedges.

Steps:
- Finely shred the cabbage. Mix all ingredients in a large bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes or until ready to serve.
Tips:
- Choose the right cabbage. Green cabbage is the most commonly used type of cabbage for coleslaw, but you can also use red cabbage or a combination of both. Red cabbage will give your coleslaw a beautiful purple hue.
- Shred the cabbage thinly. This will help the coleslaw to absorb the dressing better and make it easier to eat.
- Use a sharp knife or mandoline to shred the cabbage. This will give you even, thin shreds.
- Add other vegetables to your coleslaw. Carrots, celery, and onions are popular additions, but you can also use broccoli, cauliflower, or jicama.
- Make your own dressing. A simple dressing made with mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, and salt and pepper is all you need. You can also add other ingredients, such as mustard, dill, or celery seeds.
- Chill the coleslaw before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and make the coleslaw more refreshing.
Conclusion:
Coleslaw is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. It's a great way to add some extra vegetables to your diet and it's also very easy to make. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give coleslaw a try!
