Rubbing Thighs

I had several Costco chicken thighs feeling neglected at the bottom of the freezer, so I thought it was time to show them some love. After thawing in the fridge, a rub went on both sides, with yellow mustard to hold it in place. A few of the thighs received a coating of Kirkland Sriracha rub. For the majority, however, it was Spiceology's Smokey Honey Habanero. Neither of these rubs is very hot, so don't get your Scoville hopes up. However, they do add a nice flavor that we like around here.

They went into the Masterbuilt gas passer over a pan of hickory chunks. Running at about 290 F for two hours had them just right. The thighs probed at 175 F. Cooked but not destroyed; they were nice and juicy with crispy skin.
