Alabama White Barbecue Sauce
Traditional Alabama white barbecue sauce was originally made using raw eggs. Beaten into a thin clear base of vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper, tangy white bbq sauce was created.Nowadays mayonnaise is usually substituted for the raw eggs, for the sakes of convenience and safety. This uncooked barbecue sauce is an easy one to make.
