Chicken in a tangy bbq sauce served alongside two jazzed up sides of potatoes and green beans
This meal brings out my Southern living with being in Texas and traveling around the South. Pulled Chicken with Alabama White Sauce, Smashed Potatoes, and Bacon Green Beans. A southern dinner with all the fixings and so much flavor. I got the idea for this dish after having Alabama White Sauce at Jethro’s BBQ in Iowa; and what better sides for BBQ than potatoes and green beans. Backtracking a bit, I first heard about Jethro's years ago, when Adam Richman ate their on an episode of Man v. Food in Des Moines. My dad and I were driving back from Kansas, and we saw the sign for the restaurant as we approached Des Moines. We were like let's try this place for lunch; I looked up the menu and found Celiac safe/gluten free options and the rest is history. The Alabama White sauce did not disappoint there. It is very addicting too, that you will be wanting more. Come on over for the Southern feast!
