Mug Shot Spatchcock Chicken
This recipe is all about the sauce. Mug Shot Root Beer BBQ Sauce brings sweet, smoky flavor with a nostalgic twist. Made with real Jolly Good Root Beer, it blends smooth soda-shop sweetness with warm spices and molasses for a caramelized finish that sticks to every bite.
Paired with a simply seasoned, oven-roasted spatchcock chicken, this sauce transforms a classic dinner into something bold and unexpected. The bird is flattened for even cooking, coated in a savory beer can-style rub, and basted with Mug Shot to lock in flavor and create a sticky, glossy glaze.
