Steps:
- For the BBQ Sauce:
- Whisk all the ingredients together in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before using. Reserve a ramekin full of sauce, about 1/2 cup, to serve on the side.
- For the chicken:
- Preheat half of the grill to medium-high heat and the other half to low heat. Using tongs, dip a folded towel into olive oil and wipe over the grill grate.
- Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Arrange the chicken, skin side down, on the hottest area of the grill. Grill until seared and golden brown and crisp on each side, about 5 minutes. Move the chicken to the cooler part of the grill and brush with barbecue sauce. Continue to cook until the juices run clear, about 20 to 25 minutes. Do not forget to flip the chicken halfway through its cooking time. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and serve with sauce on the side.
ALABAMA BBQ CHICKEN AND WHITE SAUCE (GRILLED)
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!

Steps:
- Make the vinegar chicken:
- In a blender, combine the vinegar, 1 cup of the oil, salt, cayenne, chipotle pepper sauce, smoked paprika, black pepper, and garlic and blend until smooth. (Alternatively, you can use an immersion blender to blend the marinade.) Pour the marinade into a gallon-size plastic bag and toss in the chicken pieces. Marinate the chicken in the fridge for 12 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Remove the chicken pieces from the marinade and pat them dry with paper towels.
- Pour 1/4 inch of oil into a large ovenproof skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, arrange the chicken in the skillet, skin side down. The chicken should fit snugly in one layer. Loosely place a square of parchment on top of the chicken and weight the chicken down with a medium ovenproof skillet or heavy pot. Allow the chicken to cook under the weight of the skillet undisturbed for 20 minutes.
- Take the skillet off the heat and carefully (it will be hot!) remove the top skillet (or heavy pot, if using). Flip the chicken, transfer the skillet to the oven, and roast until thethickest part of the thigh registers 165°F, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Make the Alabama white sauce:
- In a glass measuring cup, whisk together the mayonnaise, vinegar, and pepper. The white sauce should be thin and runny. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. You can keep any leftover sauce in the fridge for one week.
- Let the roasted chicken rest for 5 minutes. Arrange it on a platter. Spoon the sauce over the chicken and serve.
ALABAMA CHICKEN
YUMMMMYYYY!! This is similar to a recipe I had years ago for German Stewed Chicken. I lost the recipe and this is the closest thing I have found that resembles it. It is really good and makes quite alot. The combination of different flavors makes for a very different and tasty chicken casserole. Enjoy! Guesstimate on prep and cooking times which includes cooking the chicken and the noodles.

ALABAMA CHICKEN CASSEROLE
Not sure where the name came from, but tonight it will be Virginia Chicken Casserole. I'm guessing the reason for letting the casserole sit overnight is so that the flavors can marry. Anyway, this is another favorite we enjoy alot. Recipe is from Moms Best Recipes. The original recipe calls for cream of mushroom soup. I would not...

Steps:
- 1. For the sauce: mix all ingredients together.
- 2. For the sandwiches: Mix the shredded cooked chicken with the Alabama white sauce. Place on buns and top with pickles
Tips:
- Use a cast iron skillet or Dutch oven for the best results. This will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the chicken from sticking.
- Use a meat mallet or rolling pin to pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness. This will help them to cook evenly.
- Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Brown the chicken breasts in the hot oil until they are golden brown on both sides. This will help to seal in the juices and flavor.
- Add the chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, and water to the skillet. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Serve the chicken with mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.

Alabama Chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the sauce is creamy and flavorful.
