This is a delicious and quite unique coleslaw recipe that I adapted from State Championship Coleslaw Recipes - Memphis - in the June 2013 issue of Southern Living Magazine. Trust me. Even if you don't like coleslaw, you should try this one. I made it for HUBBY and PRINCE because I am not a big fan of coleslaw, but I really fell in love with the amazing flavor!
