Sriracha Slaw

I love a slaw with some kick. Sure, I’ll enjoy a big ole bowl of sweet slaw too, but for my money you can’t beat a Sriracha slaw that brings a little heat. This is not your usual boring creamy slaw. Nor is it your usual vinegary slaw either. There’s more than a bit of spiciness in it. There’s lots of flavor too!

Nicely Spicy

Sriracha sauce is a wonderful thing. Though it is a little spicy, it’s not a burn-the-cover-off-your-tongue hot. It’s pleasant really. It adds a little something, something you don’t find in a regular hot sauce. It is fantastic in this Sriracha slaw. Heck, I’d have to rename this dish if there weren’t Sriracha in it!

I almost always use Blue Plate mayonnaise in the dishes I make. I think it is the best around. If you can’t find it locally you can pick it up online for a fair price.

Grilled Jamaican Jerk Chicken Sandwiches

Man oh man, these grilled Jamaican jerk chicken sandwiches disappeared fast. I used my preferred chicken meat, thighs, instead of breasts, but you can certainly use white meat instead. I would recommend butterflying the breasts or just cutting them thin (and to a consistent thickness so they cook evenly). No matter what you use, these sandwiches are nicely spiced, crazy tender and perfectly moist. I wouldn’t change a thing about them.

Any Good Jerk Marinade Will Do

I used some The Shizzle jerk marinade. It is my favorite. They also make a hot version that I love (it is called Voodoo Hot for a reason!). Their marinade is what makes these grilled Jamaican jerk chicken sandwiches soooo good. Any good store-bought jerk marinade will work just fine in this recipe. You could make your own too, of course!

Hard Eight Coleslaw

I’ve been a subscriber of Chile Pepper magazine (which sadly, no longer is being published) for years. I can always count on it for good articles, product reviews and recipes. Like this one from the June 2003 issue.

This coleslaw recipe comes from the Hard Eight BBQ joints in Texas. I’ve never been there, but if this slaw is any indication, they’ve got some good eats. My wife proclaimed this the best slaw I’ve ever made, which is saying a lot because I’ve made just about every variation of slaw you can imagine!

I cannot tell you how great this coleslaw is. I can try but I just won’t do it justice. Great as a side. But this slaw is outstanding on a po’boy or on some grilled chicken thigh sliders!

Hot Dogs with Onion, Chili, and Slaw

I was drooling over Chris’ Tennessee Smoky Hot Dogs post over on Nibble Me This, and thinking… boy, that sure sounds and looks great. But, I was in a bit of a hurry, so I changed it up to be a bit easier. These hot dogs with onion, chili, and slaw hit the spot. Just like slaw on pulled pork sandwiches, I love slaw on a hot dog. Add in some hot chili and crunchy onions and I’m in hot dog heaven.

Not Fancy. Just Good.

My hot dogs with onion, chili and slaw are not quite the same as Chris’, but the inspiration is there and so is the great flavor! Cool slaw really makes the show here. That creamy crunchiness contrasts the grilled dogs and chili perfectly.

Also give my hot dogs with spicy sauce and grilled onions a try!

Equipment

Ingredients

1 sweet onion cut into 1/4″ rings
2 tablespoons butter
¼ teaspoon your favorite BBQ rub or use Creole seasoning
1 can chili without beans
14 ounces coleslaw mix
1 slaw dressing I used Marzetti’s
8 hot dogs
8 hot dog buns
handful sharp cheddar cheese shredded

Instructions

Preheat grill.
Put onion slices on a sheet of aluminum foil.
Top with the butter and seasoning.
Seal and place over indirect heat on the grill for about 20 minutes or until the onion gets soft.
Remove.
Warm the chili.
Mix coleslaw vegetables and dressing.
Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Grill the dogs and toast the buns as desired.
Serve dogs topped with onion, chili, cheese and slaw.

Notes

I like to cut a thin slit down the lengths of my hot dogs before cooking. The cut will open slightly, holding toppings better when you take a bite.
