Did you make this recipe?
Similar to cloning the coleslaw at KFC, the secret technique for duplicating Cracker Barrels delicious coleslaw starts with slicing the cabbage into very small pieces. A mandoline works great for this, or use whatever slicing contraption you have. Slice the heads of green and red cabbage on the thinnest setting, and then chop those strips into small bits. The carrot can be shredded using a cheese grater. Mix it all up and then let the coleslaw chill out for several hours so the mixture can get its flavor on and ends up tasting just like Cracker Barrels famous dish. An overnight chill is even sweeter.
