Thought I should post tonight’s cook. Chicken thighs slathered in Alabama white sauce (or what the internet says it is).

    I was in AL dropping my kid off at school and trying this was on my list.  Alas I was outvoted on every meal choice and missed out.  Love it Hate it I wanted to try it.

    Thanks for the recipe to try.

    looks great, i have been making my own for a while even since we have moved and its always a crowd favorite.  i have never tried white sauce as i dont do mayo personally but i have made gallons of the stuff.  i like the mustard addition i may have to try that, thanks for sharing.

     Is the horseradish grated? Prepared? Creamy? Looking to get the right balance. I am thinking doing chicken leg quarters and going rub/sweet bbq glaze on grill and then a drizzle of the Alabama White over the top.

    It was creamed horseradish out of a jar.

    Love some white sauce, I'll have to try this recipe and see how it stacks up. Oddly enough I've had some pretty good white sauce from a place in Destin called Boshamps; although my opinion may have been skewed by the 3-4 drinks I had prior.

    Looks good, Big Bob Gibson would no doubt approve. Was going to do some Indonesian thighs tomorrow, might just try your white sauce recipe as it doesn’t use tarragon, never liked the tarragon. 
    Thanks for sharing.

    I am not a big mayo fan either, but it is just the base of the sauce. Try it you will like it!!

    The real deal is apparently supposed to be quite watery.
    2:03-5:44 here (Gibson's)... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgAL6KF3UoU&t=348s

    Recipe as given to Paula Deen (by Chris Lilly)...
    1 cup mayo 
    2 Tbsp. lemon juice 
    1/2 cup apple cider vinegar 
    1/2 cup water  
    1 Tbsp. sugar 
    1 Tbsp. salt 
    1 1/2 tsp. black pepper 
    1 tsp. prepared horseradish 
    1 tsp. cayenne pepper

    Pretty good stuff.

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    Don't know how I missed this earlier but those thighs look great.  I will give your recipe a go as it looks quite tasty.
