A smoked corned beef brisket so tender and flavorful that you'll never prepare corned beef any other way! Paired with a quick and easy slaw... on the sandwich or on the side... it's your call!

Red BBQ Slaw
Growing up in the foothills of North Carolina and enjoying Eastern North Carolina BBQ, we always had barbecue slaw or red BBQ slaw served with our pulled pork. The spicy, crunchy texture of the marinated cabbage takes BBQ to the next level. Serve this recipe with pork or chicken.
