NYC creamy coleslaw
This recipe needs advance preparation!
A rich creamy cole slaw based on New York's Manhattan Chili Co's own recipe: Southwest-American Cookbook [ISBN 978-0517563175].
I've made this using half quantities, with great success.

Chef's note
If you make the recipe using the quantities above, you will need a bucket to mix them in and a big fridge to store it in afterwards - great for barbecue quantities though.
