Ember not sending a DELETE on destroyRecord()

Having issues getting the activeModelAdapter to send a DELETE request on .destroyRecord, I also tried .deleteRecord with .save(), but get the same results....

ERROR

Started OPTIONS "/brands/117" for ::1 at 2015-04-20 17:51:05 -0700

ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches [OPTIONS] "/brands/117"):

export default Ember.ArrayController.extend({
     needs: 'application',
     currentUser: Ember.computed.alias('controllers.application.currentUser'),
     currentPath: Ember.computed.alias('controllers.application.currentPath'),
     actions: {
        deleteBrand: function(brand) {
           brand.destroyRecord();
        }
     },
     showButton: function() {
        return this.currentPath === 'brands';
     }.property('controllers.application.currentPath')
});
