Found these thighs at a local market on sale at 99 cents/lb.  Awfully hard to pass up, so we didn't!!!!  Salt, pepper, Rudy's rub and powdered garlic.  They were the last in the pool -- so to speak -- as they would certainly finish first.  2 pork shoulders and a chuckie in as well.

Hickory is the choice of the day.  Took the thighs to 165* IT (about 2.5-3 hours).  They took on a nice color.

Thanks for looking.  Q-view on the rest coming up later.  Have a great 4th!

Yep!  Along with 4 picnics, 2 other packs of thighs, some sausages!  Momma had to beat back some spares trying to climb in too!

Looks great James, thighs are a big favorite around here. That didn't sound quite right did it? Anyhow they look awesome!

Perfect -- nice & juicy.  Just keep a water pan in the smoker.
