This is my new go to for thighs. Prep is quick and easy. 4 chicken thighs, bottle of Italian style salad dressing, gallon zip lock bag. Generously cover the chicken with the dressing and marinade in bag for at least 15 minutes or overnight for best results.
Grill instructions, place chicken skin side up on top rack. Run smokeboost for 30 minutes, (180 degrees) then increase temp to 225. After about and hour, check chicken temp, if it's around 100 degrees or higher increase temp to 275. When chicken hits about 160ish place thighs on bottom grate, skin side down, to brown/crisp the skin. Turn up the heat to 325 to speed up the browning process, don't burn the skin you just want to melt some of the fat in the skin. When chicken is browned place back on top rack skin side up. Cook to 185/190 internal temp. Remove chicken place in foil covered plate and rest for 30 minutes.
If your still with me at this point, all I can say is that you will be rewarded with some of the best tasting chicken the SmokeFire can produce. The key to making this chicken is to cooking it low and slow longer than at the higher temp. Start to finish on the grill is about 2.5 hours.
Lawry's makes an Italian style marinade that is good too.
