Equipment

  • food processor, electric chopper, or box grater

Ingredients
  

Coleslaw
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vinegar
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ head green cabbage, core removed and finely chopped or grated
Hot Dogs
  • 8 hot dogs
  • 8 buns
  • mustard
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions
 

Coleslaw
  • Mix the mayonnaise, sugar, vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
  • Add the desired amount of grated cabbage to a bowl. Spoon enough dressing to coat the cabbage but not saturate it. Stir to mix uniformly. Add extra dressing if needed. Serve cold and refrigerate any leftover dressing.
Hot Dogs
  • Grill the hot dogs until browned.
  • Melt 1/3 of the butter in a large skillet. Open 2 or 3 hot dog buns until flat and toast each side in the skillet. Repeat until all the buns are toasted in the butter.
  • Add the grilled hot dogs to the toasted buns. Add a thin line of yellow mustard to each hot dog and top with 2-3 tablespoons of coleslaw to create an ultimate slaw dog. Optional: Top with garnishes like finely chopped sweet onions and chili.

Notes

Coleslaw Shortcut

Use packaged shredded cabbage in place of fresh grated cabbage.
