photos would be better scratch n’ sniff ( imagine brisket wafting): smoked sea bass and other specialties in the case and a counter brimming with homey baked goods that are truly inspired by heirloom recipes their* mom used to bake, amped up and generous.

Grilled Chicken with Bianco Barbecue Sauce

My husband Barry’s sent me this text message while dining at a southern barbecue style restaurant during his recent fishing trip in Hatteras North Carolina, “ My Love, have you ever heard of White Barbecue Sauce?, we’re at a restaurant and it’s on the menu”…My reply, “No never heard of it, sounds interesting”

Barry’s text message sparked my interested enough to do a little research later that night.  I learned that “White Barbecue Sauce”, is a staple mayonnaise based sauce used for grilling pork and chicken in Northern Alabama.

Yesterday I decided to test a recipe I had found online while doing my research. I mixed up the ingredients, swiped my finger across the backside of the spoon for a quick taste, and  was completely disappointed in the flavor. I went straight to the pantry and refrigerator for ingredients to jazz up the flavor to my liking. Last night I stood in the rain with my fingers crossed as I grilled a batch of this “jazzed up” marinated Bianco Barbecue Sauce chicken for our family dinner.  The family unanimously voted the recipe as a keeper, and all requested that I write it down before I forget how to make it….This recipe is definitely a Mamma Mia Delicioso recipe for summertime Barbecues! Perfect for this upcoming holiday weekend!
