“<p>This was really delicious, quite an unusual take on the usual sloppy Joes. Neither of our major supermarkets carried Kansas City-style BBQ sauce, but I finally found it at Trader Joe's. I have to admit that I didn't make the coleslaw as we thought it might ” — a cook, 5★
“<p>For a first timer, this came out pretty decent. I'm not sure about the barbecue sauces (my guinea pig is allergic to Mesquite) so had to research those. Other than that, BELIEVE the coleslaw size instructions, I doubled it because I was making 8 sandwiches,” — a cook, 4★
