Can you rinse the dressing off some of the coleslaw and use the cabbage
for some kind of Asian-ish stirfry? (I eat a lot of shredded cabbage
cooked that way, but have never tried it with leftover coleslaw)

There's an interesting thought, I never considered trying to use
the slaw vegetables for anything else. Might happen, because
even a small head of cabbage makes a lot of slaw.

use half the head for slaw and half (intact, it will keep a while) for
something else - sweet and sour cabbage, maybe, or in a stir-fry. i can't
imagine rinsed coleslaw being good for anything.

That's a great buy! My pulled pork shoulder was so well-received last
week that I want to get another one and do it again... it was
delicious and oh-so-easy. I love dinners that you just shove in the
oven and forget about for hours on end!

I thought so, too! Last year I was happy to get one for $1
a pound. This one was 6.75 pounds, more or less, and came
to precisely $6. What's not to like.

Same here, plus I was really happy to find out you could make
this in the oven as I don't have a barbecue, just a gas grill. Comes
out great.
