Directions
Alabama White Barbecue, It’s funny, I lived in Mississippi for a long time very close to Alabama and I never had this while I was there. It just figures that I would wait years to taste this deliciously different barbecue, which is creamy, tangy, and nicely smoky. The sauce will be thinner than what you normally expect with a tomato based sauce but it has just enough umph to make this chicken special. Now that my family has tried this, they wonder where it has been all their life!!!, I just wanted to thank you for posting this recipe. I have always loved Alabama White BBQ Chicken. Hubby not so much. I saw your recipe and thought that the marinade was just what was missing when we had tried this dish before. I had an economy package of chicken thighs that were cheap so I thought no harm done if hubby did not like it. Hubby is anti outdoor BBQ cooking so I did have to do it in my oven. I baked it at 400 degrees and after a half hour I turned it down to 375. I marinated the chicken over night. I could not find my cayenne so I had so substitute hot sauce. And I did pat dry the chicken and season with onion powder, garlic powder, paprika and salt and pepper before roasting. I made the BBQ as per your directions. Success, hubby loved it. He said, that now he understood the philosophy of Alabama White Barbecue., My husband is SO picky and I’m a vegetarian so hard for me to decide what may be tasty or not. I decided to try this for him. We ended up not grilling until the next day so it marinated a little over 24 hours. It didn’t smell good or look good. I wasn’t sure if it would be good. Husband loved it! He can’t wait to have it again!! Thanks for sharing such an interesting recipe.
