💡 Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).For a deeper flavor, let the chicken thighs marinate in the dry rub for a few hours or overnight before smoking.Ensure the wood chips are soaked in water for at least 30 minutes prior to smoking to avoid burning.
