It's funny, I lived in Mississippi for a long time very close to Alabama and I never had this while I was there. It just figures that I would wait years to taste this deliciously different barbecue, which is creamy, tangy, and nicely smoky. The sauce will be thinner than what you normally expect with a tomato based sauce but it has just enough umph to make this chicken special. Now that my family has tried this, they wonder where it has been all their life!!!

Time P1DT1h30m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 -3 1/2 lbs chicken pieces (legs, thighs, whatever)
applewood smoking wood chips, soaked in hot water (optional)
1 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup melted butter
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon prepared horseradish
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons apple juice

Steps:

  • Clean chicken, cut into serving pieces, and set aside.
  • Mix together ingredients for marinade and pour over chicken in a resealable plastic bag or covered shallow dish.
  • Refrigerate chicken in marinade 6-24 hours, turning occasionally.
  • Allow chicken to come to room temp before cooking.
  • Drain chicken marinade and bring to a boil for 2-3 minutes in a small saucepan, then allow to cool (you will be using this as a baste during cooking).
  • Set up outdoor grill for cooking with indirect heat, using a drip pan to which you can add some apple juice or other liquid, if desired.
  • Sprinkle a small amount of drained soaked wood chips over coals just before adding chicken to the grill, and allow to smolder for the smoke to flavor the food.
  • You may add more chips to the coals occasionally as you baste, when the chips are gone and you need more.
  • When grill temp gets to 250-275F, grill chicken over the drip pan (not over the coals) for 90-100 minutes, basting occasionally, or until cooked through (about 180F), tender and golden, maintaining proper grill temperature throughout.
  • While chicken is cooking, whisk together sauce in a large enough bowl to hold the sauce and chicken (the sauce may appear thin).
  • When the chicken is cooked through, toss the chicken in the sauce and serve.
  • Don't sauce the chicken on the grill, as the sauce will tend to break down if you do that.

I made this recipe for a tailgate party, and it was a hit! The chicken was tender and juicy, and the sauce was tangy and flavorful. It was the perfect food to enjoy while watching the game.

This recipe is perfect for a party. The chicken can be made ahead of time, and the sauce can be kept warm in a slow cooker. It's a great dish to serve with a variety of sides.

I used this recipe as a base and got creative with it. I added some chopped bacon and corn to the sauce, and I served it over rice instead of bread. It was a delicious and unique twist on the classic Alabama White Barbecue.

This recipe is perfect for a busy weeknight meal. The chicken can be marinated in the morning, and then it's just a matter of grilling it and making the sauce. Dinner is on the table in no time!

I made this recipe for a potluck, and it was a huge success. I doubled the recipe, and it was still gone in no time. Everyone loved the unique flavor of the white barbecue sauce.

I like my barbecue with a little bit of heat, so I added some cayenne pepper to the sauce. It gave it a nice kick without being too spicy. It was perfect!

I was looking for a healthier barbecue recipe, and this one fit the bill. The chicken is grilled instead of fried, and the sauce is made with Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise. It was still plenty flavorful, and I felt good about eating it.

This Alabama White Barbecue recipe is a real winner! The chicken was so tender and juicy, and the sauce was creamy, tangy, and flavorful. I served it with coleslaw and baked beans, and it was a hit with my family. I'll definitely be making this again
