Weather
Surface winds at ABQ were gusting to 38 knots from a heading of 100 according to the ATIS and ATC. No windshear advisories were present. We departed Runway 8 to ZZZ. I was the Pilot Monitoring and my First Officer was the Pilot Flying. We were on the RDRNR Departure; which requires a steep left climbing downwind departure to avoid terrain.The Pilot Flying was flying the departure manually with the autopilot off. Right as we started the left banking turn; we hit moderate turbulence as the headwind became a crosswind. The performance data had set us up with a Flaps 1 takeoff. We began retracting flaps on schedule. As we continued the turn the turbulence increased from moderate to severe while in a 30 degree bank and we experienced aggressive deviations to both our bank and our altitude due to turbulence and windshear. As soon as we hit the severe turbulence I immediately instructed the Pilot Flying to level both wings and nose as I saw the speed tape move irregularly to the point that I believed we could find us in further unusual attitudes due to our configuration. While attempting to gain control of the aircraft with above procedures; the stall warning/stick shaker sounded for a split second and the Pilot Flying continued to take appropriate actions to put the aircraft in a favorable pitch/bank configuration.I immediately contacted ATC and advised we could not continue flying the departure after noticing we were clear of all terrain at that point. ATC gave us direct a fix and we complied. I advised ATC that we had encountered severe turbulence; contacted our Dispatcher as well as Maintenance Control. I called the Flight Attendants to make sure that there were no injuries and that everyone was okay; although they themselves admitted they were pretty shook up. We continued to ZZZ without further incident and a call was made to the Chief Pilot; Dispatch and Maintenance Control and a write up was put in the logbook requesting a severe turbulence inspection of the aircraft.I believe that the nature of how aggressive the departure turn is; coupled with unfavorable gusting conditions at a high altitude airport caused the progression of events that we encountered. As a crew we did everything we could to keep the airplane flying safely and no limitations were exceeded and no injuries or damage was encountered to the crew or the passengers.
