The BBQ Song

I think they're wrong about Alabama - I've never, ever seen white BBQ sauce. Worth watching til the end. :D
 
Well, look at them. Unless they're all made up for comedic effect . . .

But, in reality, if you're going to play bluegrass/country music, it's best to look the part, yes?

I would hardly trust their judgement on BBQ if they looked like Robert Palmer and his girls. :D

I suppose. Flatt, Scruggs and the Foggy Mountain Boys weren't that downmarket, though . . .

And thanx for the link to Dreamland. I'm gonna order a quart right soon, y'hear?

Pulled pork and the ribs....that's what Dreamland is famous for - wonderful.
 
But I agree with you about white BBQ sauce. WTF?

Didn't watch the clip, but they may be talking about the vinegar-based BBQ sauce you find in Georgia & the Carolinas.

It can be very good, but you have to have an open mind about it.
 
Now ya'll done and went and did it. There goes my diet againe,now I want some good pulled pork BBQ With the white bread on the side.

Nope. That mustard based sauce is yellow. They claim that in Alabama they make a mayonnaise BBQ sauce. I find that a little hard to believe.
 
This traditional Alabama Barbecue Sauce uses Mayonnaise as its base rather than tomato sauce, vinegar, or any of the other traditional barbecue sauce bases. Like many barbecue sauces you want to apply this only at the very end of your grilling or smoking. It will breakdown and separate if it is heated too long. Use this sauce on chicken and turkey. It is also good on pork. Alabama White Barbecue Sauce has a tangy flavor that is a great addition to grilled foods.

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:
1 cup mayonaise
1 cup cider vinegar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 1/2 tablespoons black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne

Preparation:
Mix ingredients together and refrigerate for at least 8 hours before using. Brush lightly over chicken, turkey or pork during the last few minutes of grilling. This barbecue sauce is also great as a dipping sauce so set some aside before you start grilling to serve on the table.

Really! Okay, I've got a couple of pork roasts out in the freezer. I'll give it a try. Maybe Thursday . . .

Yeah, I'm sure you know what's "traditional Alabama" much more than I would. :rolleyes:
 
Now, now . . . I'm sure he just googled it out of curiosity and that was the wording on the recipe. Be nice . . .

I looked it up on wiki (granted, wiki isn't really an authority), and it says that a white BBQ sauce is prevalent in northern Alabama.

Ahem....I live in northern Alabama, and have for the last twenty-something years, and I've never seen or even heard of a white BBQ sauce.

Well, what's keeping you? Who knows, it might even be good. And if it's terrible, we need a warning.
 
Because I'm lazy, and Dreamland is right up the road. :D

Oh all right, then. I'll give it a try. Be warned, though, I love mayonnaise on meat and will probably give it a good score. That won't mean jack to the rest of you.

Actually, to be perfectly honest, the best BBQ I've ever had is that we have at family reunions down in Georgia (my mother's family). A lot of them are still farmers, and they kill a family-raised hog days before, and there's an old, old black man that's worked for some part of the family all his life (he's considered family to us) that cooks it for us in a hole in the ground, and then makes the sauce from scratch.

We're also the only ones he'll give the recipe to for his sauce. :)

Well, of course.

There are definite benefits to being from an old southern family, for sure. One of them is that southerners know how to cook - I mean, really know how to cook.

Abs said that when she flew home last summer, the plane was listing to the side she was sitting on. :D
