Alabama White Sauce, what we call Ivory, is a mayonnaise (preferably Duke’s) and vinegar based barbeque sauce with salt, pepper, and garlic. Similar to a coleslaw dressing, this sauce sometimes has a little cayenne or horseradish for an extra kick of flavor.

Cooking Tips
Traditional Alabama style barbeque chicken starts with whole chickens butterflied to lay flat on the grill with a simple salt and pepper rub. This dish is cooked at a slightly higher temperature, around 275 degrees, so the skin get’s crispy. When the meat is fully smoked, they dunk it in the white sauce and serve it up with a smile. For chicken barbeque in Alabama, the grill heat comes from coals shoveled under the rack. For other cuts, like pork shoulder and butt, they tend toward the Memphis cooking style.
