First successful chicken thighs with Qview

[dancg68]

Smoked chicken thighs today.  I have smoked them before and but the skin always turned out like leather and the meat was a little dry.  I put a simple rub on them and put them in the smoker at 250-260 degree (suggestion from SMF) using apple wood for smoke.

After one hour, I flipped them skin side down (another suggestion from SMF).

Ninety minutes later, I flipped them back to skin side up and put on some yummy sauce and turned up the heat.

Skin was slightly crispy and the meat had a great apple flavor.

Thanks to everyone for you suggestions that made this smoke successful.

Thighs are my favorite cut of chicken to smoke. They are always juicy and flavorful. Great post brother
