How to Smoke Chicken Legs



flat top grill cooking tips and techniques



If you're looking for a delicious way to smoke chicken thighs, try making them yourself! Mix coarse salt and water together in a large bowl to make your own rub. Mix the salt and water in a large bowl. Next, place the seasoned chicken thighs in the smoker. The smoker should be set to 225 degrees Fahrenheit (107 degrees Celsius). Once the chicken is done, coat the thighs with the glaze.

You can make the smoked chicken legs tender and flavorful by brining the chicken for up to six hours before you cook it. You must first sear the chicken legs to make the skin crisp. While it's okay to grill them before you cook, the smoky scent drove me crazy. I recommend a low and slow approach to smoking the chicken. The best results are achieved by smoking the chicken thighs at around 225 degrees for a few minutes.

After the chicken has been brined, you can add additional flavourings. The brine can also be flavored with herbs, apple cider, and chopped jalapenos. To maintain a good texture and taste, be sure to let the thighs rest in the brine at least one hour. It's tempting not to use the brine but it will cause chicken thighs that are too salty.

The temperature should be monitored when you use a smoker. Both propane and electric smokers come with a thermostat that allows you to control the temperature. You should also consider the thickness and type of meat that you are using. Boneless thighs are more tender than boneless thighs. Meanwhile, boneless legs cook more quickly. The key to a successful smoke-smoked chicken thigh is slow and careful cooking. This will allow the flavor of the thigh to penetrate the meat better.


The chicken thighs once smoked can be stored in the fridge up to 3 days, or in the freezer up until 2 months. You can also use a barbecue sauce to accompany the thighs. A sauce can be used to enhance the flavor of smoked chicken thighs. The chicken thigh skin should be crisp, which will ensure it will cook evenly. The internal temperature of the roasted chicken leg should be 165 degrees.

Once the chicken thighs are smoked, you can use the resulting smoky juices as sauce. You should cook chicken thighs to an internal temperature at 165 degrees Fahrenheit. You can continue to cook the chicken legs with the same smoker for another few hours. Your smoked chicken legs are ready to be eaten.

Smoked chicken thighs are a wonderful meal for a week or two. They are inexpensive and make great sandwiches. These leftovers make great chicken salads and are easy to grill. Depending on your thighs, you can serve them with a sauce mixture. But remember that if you want to try something new, it's always best to do your research.
