1.  In 10-inch skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.  
Add onion and cut until tender, about 10 minutes.  
Stir in tomato sauce, vinegar, molasses, Worcestershire, brown sugar,
 and ground red pepper; heat to boiling over high heat. 
 Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, uncovered, 45 minutes or
 until sauce thickens slightly.  If not using sauce right away,
 cover and refrigerate to use within 2 weeks.

 2.  Reserve 1 1/2 cups sauce to serve with grilled chicken. 
 Place chicken quarters on grill over medium heat; cook 20 to 25 minutes, turning chicken once.
Generously brush chicken with some of the remaining barbecue sauce
; cook 20 minutes longer, turning pieces often and brushing with sauce
 frequently until juice run clear when chicken is pierced with tip of knife.
Serve with reserved sauce.
