1
Make the Cornbread Hoe Cakes
In a large bowl, mix together cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. In another bowl, whisk together milk, egg, and melted butter. Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
2
Cook the Hoe Cakes
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease lightly with butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each hoe cake. Cook until bubbles form and the edges look set, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
3
Prepare the Coleslaw
In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage and grated carrot. In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper. Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss until well coated. Refrigerate until ready to use.
4
Assemble the Redneck Tacos
On each cornbread hoe cake, layer your choice of cooked protein, followed by a generous scoop of coleslaw, and drizzle with barbecue sauce and hot sauce to taste.
