1 Tablespoon creamy horseradish
2 cloves garlic grated or minced
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon paprika

Notes

Storage

Store Alabama sauce in an airtight container in your fridge for up to 1 week.

Variations

Increase the spice: Make the sauce tangier or a little spicy by stirring in some horseradish, cayenne pepper, hot sauce or buffalo sauce.
Without horseradish: Horseradish provides the signature kick in this bbq sauce but if you can’t find it, you can leave it out entirely or use extra brown mustard instead.
Seasonings: Add Old Bay, a Cajun blend, garlic powder, onion powder, brown sugar, or Worcestershire sauce.
Without mayonnaise: Try swapping the mayo base with sour cream or plain Greek yogurt. These will help the sauce taste light without losing the tang.

How to Use It

Dressing: Try it as a salad dressing or drizzled on pizza.
On meats: On meats like pork chops, pork tenderloin, beef brisket and bbq chicken thighs, air fryer drumsticks, baked chicken legs, chicken sandwiches and burgers.
As a dip: For chicken tenders, chicken wings, french fries, zucchini fries, sweet potato fries, or buffalo tofu bites.
On vegetables: Like brussels sprouts and roasted broccoli.
Glaze it: As you grill potatoes, lamb, pork, and chicken.
