White Barbecue Sauce – It’s creamy, tangy, versatile, and the perfect dip or spread. Pair this White BBQ Sauce with fried or grilled chicken, pork, fries, sandwiches, or as a base for chicken salad. It’ll jazz up any piece of meat.

Additionally, I marinate with it, use it to baste, and use it as an all-purpose table sauce. The possibilities are endless!

White Barbecue Sauce

White Barbecue Sauce is a regional favorite. A traditional Alabama BBQ sauce, this vinegar-based sauce has quickly become a favorite with anyone that’s tried it. It’s not what you envision when you think of barbecue sauce. At all. It’s white and not sweet. It has a vinegar base, not a tomato base like most barbecue sauces. However, with all the differences it sure is good!

It’s ridiculously easy to make. You just whisk everything together in a bowl until smooth, then pour into a jar and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. It’s so simple, but so, so good.

What does Alabama White Sauce taste like?

It’s creamy and tangy and has a good ‘dose’ of freshly ground black pepper giving it just enough kick. You’ll definitely want to use freshly ground pepper, it makes a world of difference with the flavor!

A spoon dives into a jar of creamy pepper sauce, reminiscent of a tangy sauce, held just above the jar.

Is Alabama White BBQ Sauce the same as Ranch dressing?

No. Ranch is creamy with dill. Alabama White Sauce is tangy with a black pepper flavor.

Whoah! I never knew about white barbecue sauce, but I love the looks of this! Almost like a coleslaw dressing. My Texas husband would probably call blasphemy (;)), but I want to try it!
