Big Bob Gibson's White BBQ Sauce 2.0

[SouthernSmoked]

In the book he says if storing in a jar with lid it should last up to 2 weeks.

I have done this sauce for about a year now and found that 3-4 weeks will be OK.

I've never stored this sauce longer than that...not saying you couldn't.

Just have to ask when I get a shocker report from doc after physical.

Huh?  Physical?
I just send the doc a post card every 20 years to let him know I ain't dead yet.

I knew you would have the right answer for me Hal.

Of course... When you can't send the postcard, it's all moot...

Back to White sauce.

At Big Bob Gibson's, I believe it is dunked after grilling and served without further cooking.  It is said that the sauce was created in 1925.  I hope they've made up a fresh batch.

I tried it that way and landed on dunking, then back over to the grill and using it as a semi glaze.  Sometimes it goes for a second swim.

I haven't read his book but from talking with SouthernSmoked he said he thought it was used as a dunking sauce.  The sauce I made from the recipe in his book is very thin and when I dunked into my heated sauce pot not muck sauce stuck to the chicken. And since I like my sauce on the heavy side I decided to brush it on and had better success.  I would like to order a bottle of his sauce and compare it to what I made.

One question I do have that I'll put out to you and the forum members is:  The recipe made 4 cups and I only used a cup.  I have a 3/4 full mayonnaise jar left of the sauce, how long do you think it will last in the fridge?

If you are using store bought mayo and not homemade, I would go with Southern's suggestion or longer.  You are adding some additional preservatives (acids like lemon juice and vinegar)  and there is nothing added that is not a long term ingredient.  Now fresh mayo would be a different story. 

If you can vacuum pack it, all the better.

I sent Tenpoint5 some bottles of real Bob Gibson's White sauce but he never told me if he tried them yet.  ???
