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.

  1. I throw a heaping teaspoon of fresh-ground horseradish in that White BBQ Sauce. BTW, then add a good bit of sweet relish, and it makes a fine base for deviled eggs.

  2. I love love LOVE white bbq sauce! I can’t wait to try this recipe cause you can’t get it in Tx. It is soo good on smoked shredded chicken sandwiches. Ahhh I miss my AL home 🙂

  3. Paula by all means I do not wish to create a flame war. Do you have a preference an opinion on brands or variety? I have been using the kind with olive oil with crack pepper for everything. The taste is good and fat savings is awesome but I’m concerned I won’t get the true taste of this sauce by altering.
