Would y'all believe I've never had a slaw dog???
But this thread makes me grin every time I see it.... See, my momma was a wannabe-Southern-Belle, complete with a Southern drawl & accent to go with it. And one year when I was about 14, she, my grandmother, an aunt, a cousin & I went on a road trip up thru New England. The dialect differences weren't a problem for most of us.... However, my mother couldn't even order at a restaurants because they couldn't understand a word she was saying! I remember somewhere in Connecticut, we were at a roadside diner & she decided she wanted a slaw dog and got so danged mad trying to get them to understand what she was saying that steam was shooting out of her ears & she stomped off muttering "Da** yankees"!!!!!!!!! I about died laughing as I placed my order for a burger & fries and asked if they could fix her a slaw dog. Turns out it wasn't JUST a language issue but a cultural one as well. They'd never heard of such a thing! Needless to say, my mom didn't get her slaw dog (in fact, I think it made her so mad that she NEVER ate one again) and both the waitress & I got a lesson in regional food differences!

Finally found the wife’s family cookbook. Still dragging shit out after moving in October. She uses that recipe and there the closest thing to citrate I’ve ever ate. God there delicious. She will make a good size batch and it goes on everything. Burgers bologna hot dogs or whatever

I ask wife about amounts and she didn’t know she said you just play with it till it’s right. Still seems like a vague ass recipe to me lol

I can adjust it. I like it pretty hot but others in family not so much. Can’t believe I missed horseradish.
Recipe looks good to me.

Just a conspiracy theory. Until drakeshooter opens up his pizza shop and I open up a slaw dog shop inside🤣
We will probably throw beer bottles at each other or opposition’s customers for a few months.🇺🇸

Serious, if you like hot dogs drop a few in deep fryer and try Mainbeams recipe or head west to Marion Co. Cut Rate liquors a small hole in wall shop and order one up.

Does it have chili on it? Or just like German hot slaw?
