Directions
Alabama BBQ Chicken and White Sauce (Grilled),Had this at a friend’s house this weekend and it was great. Very different. She used a “Green Egg Smoker” which cooked the chicken slowly and kept it very moist. You can use boneless, skinless breasts and then serve them on nice bread with lettuce leaves, pickles (if you like) and the white sauce! My friend got the recipe from “Smoke and Spice” and this is a similar one from The BBQ General website from a magazine called Cook’s Country. Hope you like it. I don’t have a smoker but I can try indirect heating. I have a gas grill too so there are obstacles but I can experiment!,I made this last night, as directed. Fabulous! I took a photo because it was such a thing of beauty, and it really didn’t take very long to do.
My only change was that I made a double batch of the sauce, as we usually like a little extra in most recipes. It turns out we did NOT need it at all for this recipe.
If you’re a little on the fence about this recipe, let me reassure you that it is tried and true, and I would say GO MAKE IT NOW because it is freakin’ good!. I can’t wait for lunch so I can have leftovers.
Gads, it was so juicy, too. Be sure that you give it that ten minute rest as the recipe calls for.
