Alabama White BBQ Sauce

Alabama White BBQ Sauce

Alabama barbecue isn’t as strictly defined as other regional styles. It’s usually smoked over hickory wood in an open pit , with options you’d generally expect like brisket, pulled pork, ribs, sausage, turkey and chicken. These are often served with tomato- or mustard-based sauces, or sometimes, none at all.

One thing Alabama can call its own is “white sauce,” which originated in the 1920s with Bob Gibson in the northern town of Decatur. It typically goes with chicken, though it’s tasty on other meat, too. It can be used as a marinade or as condiment (or ideally, both).   It's really good on smoked chicken wings.
