White BBQ sauce, also known as Alabama white sauce, is a tangy and creamy condiment that originated in the southern United States.

Unlike traditional barbecue sauces that are usually tomato-based and sweet, white BBQ sauce is made with mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, horseradish, and spices.

    I tried this kind of white bbq sauce in a bottle, it was a store one time order.. of course after I find I love it .. couldn’t find it again! I’m SO HAPPY to have found your recipe, yes even better than bottled. I have to watch sodium closely.. this if far lower than other sauces. I’ll try mixing up the recipe for fun sometimes. Thank you

    1. Glad you like the recipe. I LOVE dipping my chicken nuggets in this sauce. Sometimes I even add a little more horseradish when I am looking for a little more kick!
