Slow cookers are awesome! So, don’t pack yours away now that it’s getting hot out. They’re great for making making dinner without making your kitchen unbearably hot.
They’re also fantastic for making super-tender meat, like the beef in these sandwiches. The beef in these Slow Cooker Beef Sandwiches with Horseradish Coleslaw is so soft that it practically melts in your mouth. I kept the seasonings pretty minimal to let the natural flavor of the beef shine.
I also kept the seasonings pretty basic because there’s so much flavor in the horseradish coleslaw.It’s sweet and creamy with just the right amount of zip and tang to it. So, do yourself a favor and make these easy, delicious sandwiches (without heating up your kitchen!).

These look great. I was just gifted (well…my friends moved and they shoved it on me) a large amount of horseradish. I’d never think to put it in a slaw, but I’m definitely doing it now. Thanks!
Kate says
I love horseradish, so I would be in heaven! I hope you enjoy the slaw! The horseradish definitely adds a nice zip to it. =)

I love horseradish, too, and that’s really all of the “hot” I can have, as I have acid reflux issues. Horseradish is yummy and doesn’t seem to affect that. Yay!! Anyway, thank you so much for posting this, and I’m going to keep it for the sandwich and also just for the coleslaw!
Kate says
Awesome! I’m not a big fan of foods that are too spicy, but I love horseradish. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do! =)
