Superbowl Slaw

I am getting ready to grill racks of ribs for the Super Bowl crowd gathering later today, and I need something to accompany it. What’s more American than a slaw with bacon and bleu cheese? Here we go!

  • 1 smaller radiccio, thinly sliced
  • 1 red pepper, sliced

  • 1 shallot, thinly sliced
  • 4 oz bleu cheese, crumbled

  1. Mix cabbage, radiccio and pepper. Set aside.
  2. Cook bacon until crisp; crumble, and set aside.
  3. Cook shallot in bacon grease and set aside.
  4. Reduce cider to 1/2 cup.
