Raise your hand if you know what Alabama White Sauce is…guessing the majority aren’t raising your hand and probably haven’t heard of it and the majority have never tasted it. Let me tell you this if you haven’t tried it, you are missing out!
Made famous by a massively popular barbecue joint in Alabama by the name of Big Bob Gibson Bar-B-Q. This sauce has been one of their trade secrets and the “original” recipe is still a mystery. There are many “authentic” recipes and the one here is no different.
First off, this is not a barbecue sauce in the traditional sense. It is not sweet but tangier. The base isn’t ketchup, it’s mayonnaise. This does not pair well with all types of meat but is to die for with chicken, particularly smoked chicken. My wife is nuts for this sauce and has used it on salads as well for added flavor. I've used it on turkey sandwiches as a mayonnaise substitute. I'd generally say that anything that has a mayonnaise base, this can be a more flavorful substitute.
