Sack Lunch: Turkey and Coleslaw Sandwich

When I lived in north Jersey the delis made a sandwich called a Sloppy Joe, it is the BEST! Turkey, ham, Swiss, coleslaw, and Thousand Island dressing on rye. It's a three napkin sandwich but soooo good!

Sack Lunch: Turkey and Coleslaw Sandwich

The book says salting the cabbage will draw out a lot of its water before you toss it with the dressing. That way the cabbage will not "weep" water once it's tossed, which creates a watery cole slaw. To me it seemed salting the cabbage also made it a little easier to chew, but that isn't one of the reasons author listed.

Why do you let the cabbage sit in salt???

I like the idea of doing this with roast beef...especially if you added a little horseradish to the coleslaw...mmm

This is one of my favorite sandwiches.

I usually grill the rye bread and get the swiss cheese all melted, then top it with tons of turkey a squirt of thousand island and a heaping amount of cole slaw.

On occasion Ill stick some cole slaw onto a hot dog or plain hamburger as well.

Cole slaw and pineapple suit a grilled chicken breast with teriyaki sauce too, shove that all into a sandwich bun and yum!

And then of course there is pulled pork too.

Im hungry now...

I always add cole slaw to my roast turkey sandwiches. I also can't eat hot dogs and corned beef sandwiches without my addition of cole slaw. I've never been to a deli in NYC that won't add (for an extra charge). And, of course, always on pulled pork sandwiches.
