Most people outside of the state of Alabama have the same reaction when presented with Alabama BBQ for the first time...yuck. But after getting over the first reaction and actually trying it, a different reaction occurs. "This is very good!"
No where else in the country is barbeque and bbq sauce quite like Alabama's. This unique and non-traditional way of preparing barbecue is still not that well known. But don't tell anyone in Alabama. To most folks there, this is the only way to barbeque.
The white sauce gets most of its color and flavor from a mayonnaise base. And just like many other barbecue sauces, you want to brush this on at the very end(the last 5 minutes of grilling) or it will break down because of the heat.
This Alabama white sauce recipe can be used with your favorite barbequed or grilled chicken recipe. It is also great on pork or turkey(the other white meats).
Ingredients:
- 1 cup mayonaise
- 1 cup cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 1/2 tablespoons black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne
Mix all ingredients together and refrigerate for at least an hour. Stir again right before using.
Just get over the thought of it and try some authentic Alabama Barbeque soon. It is so easy to make and so delicious you will be glad you did.
