ALABAMA BBQ CHICKEN AND WHITE SAUCE (GRILLED)



Alabama BBQ Chicken and White Sauce (Grilled) image

Had this at a friend's house this weekend and it was great. Very different. She used a "Green Egg Smoker" which cooked the chicken slowly and kept it very moist. You can use boneless, skinless breasts and then serve them on nice bread with lettuce leaves, pickles (if you like) and the white sauce! My friend got the recipe from "Smoke and Spice" and this is a similar one from The BBQ General website from a magazine called Cook's Country. Hope you like it. I don't have a smoker but I can try indirect heating. I have a gas grill too so there are obstacles but I can experiment!

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH ALABAMA WHITE BBQ SAUCE

Provided by Jeff Mauro, host of Sandwich King

Categories     main-dish

Time 4h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup kosher salt
One 5-pound chicken, quartered
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Alabama White BBQ Sauce, recipe follows
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Salt

Steps:

  • Mix the sugar, salt and 3 quarts (12 cups) water together in a large plastic or stainless steel vessel. Add the chicken quarters to the mixture and let brine, refrigerated, for at least 2 hours.
  • Set a wire rack on a baking sheet. Remove the chicken from the brine, pat dry with paper towels and then set on the wire rack for at least 1 hour at room temperature, though it is ideal to do this step overnight in the refrigerator. (If you decide to refrigerate it overnight, be sure to bring the chicken to room temperature for about an hour before grilling.)
  • Heat a grill to medium heat (about 350 degrees F). In a large bowl, toss the chicken with the cornstarch and vegetable oil.
  • Grill the chicken skin-side down for 15 minutes, keeping an eye on it to make sure the skin doesn't burn. Flip the chicken and cook until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 20 minutes. Remove and let rest for at least 10 minutes. Serve with Alabama White BBQ Sauce.
  • Stir together the mayonnaise, vinegar, horseradish, mustard and pepper in a medium bowl. Season with salt. Serve with grilled chicken.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 9h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 cup sugar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Two 12-ounce bottles amber beer, chilled
1 head garlic, split crosswise
2 fresh bay leaves
2 teaspoons whole black peppercorns
Two 4-pound chickens, cut into 8 pieces each
Vegetable oil, for brushing
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons drained prepared horseradish
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Hot pepper sauce, such as Tabasco, for seasoning

Steps:

  • For the chicken: In a pot large enough to hold the chicken, combine the sugar, 1/4 cup salt and 2 cups cold water. Stir until the salt and sugar dissolve. Pour in the beer and add the garlic, bay leaves and peppercorns. Submerge the chicken in the brine. Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours and up to overnight.
  • For the Alabama white barbecue sauce: Meanwhile, whisk together the mayonnaise, vinegar, horseradish, sugar and Worcestershire in a medium bowl until smooth. Season with 1 teaspoon salt, hot sauce to taste and a liberal grinding of black pepper. Cover and refrigerate until you're ready to cook the chicken. (Can be made a day ahead, along with the chicken brine.)
  • Prepare a grill for medium indirect grilling. Drain and rinse the chicken and pat very dry. Season the chicken lightly with salt and more liberally with black pepper. Brush lightly with vegetable oil.
  • Brush the grill grates with vegetable oil and lay the chicken, bone-side down, on the indirect heat side of the grill. Cover and cook until the skin is golden and the chicken is about three-quarters cooked (130 to 135 degrees F on an instant read thermometer), 20 to 25 minutes. Flip the chicken pieces so they are skin-side down and continue indirect grilling until the chicken is cooked through and reads 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 15 minutes more.
  • Brush the chicken all over with some of the Alabama white barbecue sauce and move the chicken, skin-side down, to the direct heat side of the grill. Grill just until the skin crisps, about 3 minutes, moving as necessary to keep it from burning. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  • Serve the remaining Alabama white sauce on the side for dipping.

Tips for Making Alabama BBQ Chicken and White Sauce

  • For the chicken, use a whole chicken cut into 8 pieces or bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts or thighs.
  • To make the marinade, combine mayonnaise, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  • Place the chicken in the marinade and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight.
  • When ready to cook, preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade.
  • Grill the chicken over direct heat for 8-10 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
  • While the chicken is grilling, make the white sauce.
  • To make the white sauce, combine mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl.
  • Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  • Once the chicken is cooked, brush it with the white sauce and serve immediately.
