The perfect grilled chicken recipe starts with the best BBQ sauce. In the summer, we love to grill. We would much rather cook dinner on our kitchen deck than heat up our farmhouse kitchen. Today, I am sharing our family's fav grilled chicken with white BBQ sauce recipe with ingredients you probably already have at home. I hope your family enjoys this grilled chicken as much as our family does!

Combine 1st 6 ingredients in a medium size bowl & stir well

Pour 1/2 of the White BBQ sauce into a large Zip-lock bag with your chicken to coat. Save the rest the white BBQ sauce to baste or dip your chicken in later.

Grill the chicken over medium heat turning often. Baste with a little bit of the white BBQ sauce 1/2 way through. The chicken is done when it is no longer pink in the middle. For bone in chicken it takes approximately 15-20 mins & much less if you are grilling boneless.

    Would it work if you baked this in the oven? What temperature would you use?

    This sounds a lot like Cornell sauce (BBQ sauce NY State style), except instead of eggs, it uses mayonnaise. The taste is probably similar - and that’s a good thing.

      This is NOT the Cornell White BBQ sauce! It's somewhat similar but the Cornell sauce recipe I grew up on--and helped my father make for decades--not only didn't have mayo, it didn't have Worchester sauce. The ingredients were oil, vinegar, eggs, poultry seasoning (NOT sage), lemon juice, salt and pepper. Very different.
