Big Bob Gibson's Bar-B-Q White Sauce

This authentic Alabama white BBQ sauce is a legendary regional speciality that offers a refreshing departure from traditional tomato-based glazes. Originally made famous by Big Bob Gibson, this dairy-free condiment relies on a creamy mayonnaise base sharpened with white vinegar and a hint of pungent horseradish. The addition of apple and lemon juices provides a subtle fruity lift that perfectly balances the savoury heat from the cayenne and cracked black pepper.

Incredibly versatile and quick to prepare, this sauce is traditionally served with smoked or roast chicken, though it also makes a fantastic tangy dressing for a crunchy homemade coleslaw. Because it serves as a marinade, baste and dipping sauce all in one, it is a brilliant addition to any summer barbecue spread. Simply whisk it together ahead of time and keep it chilled until you are ready to serve.
