A quick google turns up

Hope that's it.

Edit: that has to be it. Every link of the first 10 is essentially the same recipe.

This looks pretty much like hers minus the pulled pork.
I am thinking the old Farm Ladies cook books hold a wealth of information and recipes just waiting to be brought back to life.
I would guess pulled pork back in the day of that old cook book was a luxury.
It does make REALLY good baked beans!

And my heart skipped a beat when i read the 2.nd post.. I suddenly thought that Danjohnston949 had written a reply just recently..until i realised that this was an post from 2018..
But anyway.. thanks for the update Cheef

[Cheef]

Yes I noticed Dan's comments also. I wish he had tried that recipe and commented.

I’ve eaten at the original Brookville Hotel in Brookville. We were driving down I-70 on our way to Breckinridge to ski.
The fried chicken and mashed potatoes & gravy were awesome. It was served country style and I believe it was all you could eat, but I’m sure they charged for extra platters.
Sorry to hear it closed. I think a lot of small restaurants will close because of COVID. Sad.

So simple, nice
thank for post.

[Cheef]

I absolutely recommend you try it.
Just keep it stirred up well as the sauce wants to slide to bottom.

I've been after a good simple slaw recipe and this looks like it fits all the criteria. Will be making some today. Reason is I have some cream that needs taking care of 😊.
Thanks for reviving recipe.

[Cheef]

I would appreciate feed back. It is unique, and it would be interesting to see how others like it.
The sauce does want to slide to bottom so keep it stirred up well.,

[holehogg]

I'll give you my honest opinion and tell you I like it a lot. Like you do, I can see myself drinking the left over juices. Very glad to have this slaw recipe.

[Cheef]

Good deal holehogg
It is kind of strange to me how if it sets overnight it kind of gets better.
It almost gets a bubbly kind of ferment going.

Now I have to make good on a promise to Katherine and get the recipe for my wifes Grannies "Grease Beans" posted.
It was one of the most requested recipes at events all over Rooks County, KS for 40 years while Grannie was still living.

Another very unique take on a passed by vegetable. Grannies Grease Beans are still a hit at any family gathering we have even to this day.
Wife is always reminded not to forget to make them by half a dozen cousins, and her Brother and Sister.

crisp up bacon, add the fresh beans to the pot without draining the grease, dehydrated onion, Worcestershire sauce and saute until the beans get a little limp looking.
My 40 year old Son will still wrestle you for them.

Still trying to get my head around whipped cream in Cole Slaw, but hey I'll give it a whirl.
Can it be canned whipped cream?

[smokin fool]

Willy Thank you....I really gotta start reading stuff....and understanding it before I comment

[Willy]

Hey, I remember the first batch of chili I ever made. The recipe called for three cloves of garlic...I put in three HEADS!

[smokin fool]

Well, garlic is good for you....

I have to give a hearty shout out to Cheef for this cole slaw recipe. It's one of the few recipes for slaw that I have used where you can actually taste the cabbage more than the dressing. The sweet-sour dressing is there, for sure, but it's not dominant. It's probably one of the best cole slaw recipes I've ever made. It's tasty good on the first night and doesn't get soggy as a leftover.

I made a batch this past week to go with our pulled pork feast (3 pork butts on Mr. Fancypants, the WSCGC). Last night was our swan song for the pulled pork before I vac seal the rest in 1 lb bags. We had long since polished off the slaw I originally made. I was pulling out fresh veggies last night to make a salad and my husband said, "Got any of that slaw left? I'd rather have that." So I quickly switched gears and made up a fresh batch of Brookville Hotel Cole Slaw instead. So delicious.

Thanks, Cheef, for the recipe. It's a real keeper.

Really glad you liked it. It's kind of cool to see the old recipes get discovered again. Now confession time.
DID you drink the left over juice or is that my weakness?

[Cheef]

NOW to get the wife to dig out the Grease Beans recipe. It is fascinating to me how cooked until they are wilted fresh green beans can taste SO good.

[Willy]

I tried it—very good and very easy.

Just made this for a birthday party tonight. I did, however make some substitutions/additions.

Instead of 1 tsp salt, I used about 1½ teaspoons of Tony Chachere's Cajun seasoning. I also added in to my green & red cabbage mix a single jalapeno pepper, deseeded, deveined and sliced ultra-thin, like julienned. Once it was made up, I tasted it and it was very sweet, not surprisingly, and tasted to me like it needed a bit more salt - so I added about the same amount of Tony Chacere's again (so about 3 tsp or 1 tablespoon total) and another thinly julienned jalapeno.

At this point it is still pretty sweet, but has a little of the salt coming through and a little of the spice.

I like it. It's sitting in the fridge waiting for tonight.

This has been our go-to slaw (with a few tweaks) for the last few years. Adjust the sugar and add black pepper. This slaw just works.
