Rosso Catering ~ Fire to GO catered one of our Wine Club appreciation parties. They roasted a pig and served it with an amazing coleslaw. It was such a hit, we asked them to refine the recipe so it could be replicated at home, without having to roast a whole pig. Here is the result and we just love it!
