The web page https://www.asouthernsoul.com/bbq-red-slaw/ gives a recipe recipe for red slaw that calls for a lot of sugar:
Ingredients
- 4 cups cabbage - finely chopped
- 2/3 cup ketchup
- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- dash of hot sauce
In my time in NC, I don't recall anything put on hamburgers or barbeque that was so sweet. Could "1/2 cup sugar" be a typo?
