Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup finely chopped yellow onion
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 cup ketchup
1/2 cup lemon-lime carbonated beverage (not diet)
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard

Instructions

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, cook the oil, onion, and garlic until golden, about 10 minutes, stirring often. Add the rest of the sauce ingredients and stir to combine. Bring the sauce to a simmer, reduce the heat to low, and cook until slightly thickened, 10 to 15 minutes, stirring often.
In a small bowl mix the rub ingredients. Sprinkle the rub evenly all over the chicken pieces. Let the chicken stand at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes before grilling. Prepare the grill for direct and indirect cooking over medium heat. Triple Play Barbecued Chicken
Brush the cooking grates clean. Grill the chicken, skin side down, over direct medium heat, with the lid closed as much as possible, until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes, turning occasionally. Move the chicken pieces over indirect medium heat. Drain and scatter the wood chips over the lit charcoal or put them in the smoker box of a gas grill, following manufacturer's instructions. Continue to grill the chicken, with the lid closed, for about 20 minutes. Then brush both sides with a thin layer of the sauce and cook until the juices run clear and the meat is no longer pink at the bone, about 15 minutes, occasionally turning and brushing with the sauce. Serve warm or at room temperature with the remaining sauce on the side
