There are a handful of sides that are as traditional as it gets when it comes to barbecue and coleslaw is most definitely on that list. Hawaiian Pineapple Coleslaw though? Maybe not, but after you try this recipe for a pineapple infused coleslaw, you may think differently!
This slaw is perfect for any tropical barbecue extravaganza. This goes fantastic with pulled pork, especially our Hawaiian Kalua Pulled Pork, or a teriyaki chicken dish. Don’t let the pineapple pigeonhole you though, this is a great standalone side dish to spice up any BBQ.
