Ember transitionTo removed but still firing

This one has me baffled. I am still new to ember but I had some nested routes where I was calling transitionTo with the redirect hook on the parent route to pull in a nested child route.

App.ParentRoute = Ember.Route.extend({
   redirect: { transitionTo('childroute'); }
});

I since removed the redirect hook and the transitionTo however the transition is still occurring. I even have closed my project and reopened, cleared the cache on all browsers but it still is holding onto the transition. I have also tried calling a bogus route under the redirect and it errors out. As soon as I remove, it goes back to this behavior and transitions into the child route. Has anyone ever had this happen? What am I doing wrong? Please let me know if you need more code.
