Jeff's QUE Sauce Recipe
I've made it four times now and found that different brands of Ketchup made a big difference too, Heinz was the best and Cattleman's took forever to cook the Ketchup taste off of it.

How to keep boneless/skinless thighs moist?
This will sound wierd, but others will back me up, I think they will anyway. Slather those things with MAYO before you smoke em! It will seal the meat but still allow the smoke to get in. Makes a great color and you will never tast the mayo itself. Its eggs and oil after all. I use it on all my... -
