I made this one last week for the family. It is from Cuisine Tonight Grilling (the newer one). You actually roast the chicken first in the oven, then finish with the sauce on the grill. Made it much easier for me to do the grilling. I made the sauce as written, except for adding the red pepper flakes since I was making it for the kids too. We really liked the sauce - and I am not a huge BBQ sauce fan. Originally Steve thought the sauce was too sweet, but once it was grilled on the chicken he said he liked it. I think it took slightly longer to reduce the root beer and I don't think I reduced it quite to 1/2 a cup. But it was plenty and the sauce was thick enough. Will definately make this again. especially the pre-cooking technique. I know it is cheating but just so much easier for me and our busy life.
One note - I cooked it earlier than dinner time, coated in the sauce and let is sit before grilling. Worked just fine.
