A hand dips a piece of fried pickle into a bowl of creamy sauce sprinkled with black pepper. More fried pickles are scattered on a dark plate beside the bowl.

Creamy Alabama White BBQ Sauce That Skips the Ketchup

Creamy Alabama White BBQ Sauce skips the ketchup and is built on tangy apple cider vinegar, smooth mayonnaise, and just enough horseradish and cayenne to keep things interesting. There’s no cooking involved, just a quick whisk in a bowl and a short chill in the fridge. Spoon it over chicken, drizzle it on fried chicken, or serve it as a dip for crispy okra. This mayo-based barbecue sauce is sharp, savory, and ready in about five minutes.

Barbara's Notes + Tips
  • Store: Keep Alabama White BBQ Sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It holds well for up to a week. Stir before serving since it can settle slightly after sitting.
