When people think barbecue sauce, they usually think something tomato- or vinegar-based. But today, I want to convince you to consider another breed of barbecue white...

It sounds racist.
Real barbecue isn’t a sauce!
Sounds like it would go well with burgers.
Cypress Inn in Tuscaloosa serves grilled chicken with white barbecue sauce. Good stuff!
I can vouch...good stuff. I’ve never had it in Alabama though. I found a recipe in an America’s Test Kitchen book about 10 years ago and modified the recipe to have a bit more kick for my liking. A friend just asked me a couple weeks ago to make it again.
I love barbecue, but like you, I’d never heard of this. It sure sounds good though.
Pinging this for the AM
The sauce has been around for a while; mayonnaise is the base and has none of the ingredients usual BBQ sauce. One famous BBQ sauce with the initials of E & J has this for the ingredients: ketchup, tomatoes, brown sugar, water, liquid smoke, and cayenne pepper. What every sauce of this type does is burn, caramelize, on the meat during cooking if the chef is not careful. They all pretty much taste the same with a few nuances—No pun intended Mary Harf!
I know of one that is better, no tomatoes, no vinegar, no sugar, and it goes on after cooking, making the meat marinate in its own juices, instead of burning on the grill. I will never tell. My friends have threatened me for the recipe. No, I will never tell.
Not even a self respecting Barner would consider this BBQ
Yes, I make it.
I use 3/4 cup mayo
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon prepared horseradish
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
Blend quickly in a food processor or blender and refrigerate for at least an hour.
bkmk yum!
This thread might be of interest to you.
I dont know if I can say its white exactly, but its sure not red. I grew up on barbecued chicken marinated and slathered with this stuff and it cant be beat.
Its called Cornell Barbecue Chicken or sometimes State Fair Chicken.

bon appetit
Thank you!!! I have a folder of barbeque recipes and will be trying this one soon! I had a garden party a few years ago with Kansas Red sauce, Carolina vinegar sauce and Mustard sauce. They were all delicious and I’m thrilled to have a new recipe to add.
Nope, not the one. It is the recipe featured in an MSN article on the best BBQ’s in America, with the restaurant being from Alabama. Cannot remember the exact title.
Lots of BBQ places around Birmingham have white sauce, it is delicious.
Before you put your chicken on the grill rub it in a teaspoon of salt, a teaspoon of pepper and 1/2 teaspoon cayenne.
Let it sit in the refrigerator at least 30 minutes to 8 hours.
BBQ your chicken on low heat for 30 to 35 minutes. Baste it with the sauce while it’s on the grill and put more sauce on it before serving.
