Texas style coleslaw recipe's ?

[timothy]

At work we had a catered BBQ lunch yesterday. One of the sides was a coleslaw with corn, shredded cheese, cilantro, cumin, garlic and peppers. I liked it, and was told it was a Texas style.
I did a search online and found a few recipe's ( hit & miss on the reviews ). So does anyone have any tried and true versions they would like to share?

Of "texas" style or any style?

Texas. Found one which had favorable reviews, not sure if it's authentic, or if Texas even has this style of slaw?

I was born and raised in TX. I've never heard of it. But to be sure, I asked my mom who's lived in TX 80+ yrs. She's never never heard of it. I think someone made cole slaw and put some "Texas" stuff in it (cumin, cilantro, corn, etc) and called it "Texas Cole Slaw". It sounds great ...but I never heard of it.

That's what I was thinking Dwain. After doing a search I haven't come across one that says authentic or just like "mom did " or this BBQ joint made.
Seems it just like adding a few different ingredients and calling something Tex-Mex.
Thk's for the reply's guys.

I did find Rudy Mikaska's slaw recipe http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/rudy-mikeskas-coleslaw-recipe0.html#!url]

The Mikaska's are one of those BBQ dynasties in TX. http://mikeska.com/familyTradition.html
