For a less 'wet' coleslaw, especially when serving with pulled pork, start with a smaller amount of dressing and add more as needed. Experiment with different types of vinegar, such as apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar, to customize the flavor profile. If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can make a substitute by adding 2 tablespoons of vinegar or lemon juice to a liquid measuring cup, then filling it with milk to the 2-cup line. Let it stand for 5 minutes before using. Adding a tablespoon of Dijon mustard can give the dressing a more complex and tangy flavor.
