This is some of the best K.F.C. ever! Oh, we meant Kentucky's Finest Coleslaw... what were you thinking? This is one of our favorite secret recipes, but we'd be happy to share it with ya. We call it a "bucket of happiness" when we bring it to potlucks and cookouts, because what else can you do but smile when you munch on the crunchy coleslaw and tangy onions smothered in the creamy, sweet dressing. The flavor speaks for itself, and we like to think that Kentucky's Finest Coleslaw is famous in our town for a reason! So, if you're looking for something that is this fork-lickin' good to bring to your next Southern bash, then this is the best crispy, juicy, irresistible option out there!

Step 4 -In a pint jar, add the sugar and the 3 tablespoons of water and stir until the sugar dissolves a bit.

Step 6 -Stir the dressing mixture into the coleslaw.
Step 7 -Let the coleslaw marinate and soften, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
Step 8 -Taste the coleslaw and season with more of the salt as needed.
