Equipment

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds chicken thighs
  • 3 tablespoon OWYD Roasted Chicken Rub

Instructions

  • Preheat your pellet grill to 375°F.
  • Evenly coat all sides of the chicken thighs with the rub.
  • Place skin-side down into the pre-heated grill.
  • Let cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the fat has rendered, and the skin is browned.
  • Flip, and continue to cook until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  • Remove from the grill and let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
  • Optional: Love crispy chicken skin? Preheat a few tablespoons of oil in a skillet on the stovetop over medium-high heat. Place the chicken thighs skin-side down into the hot oil for 2-3 minutes after grilling to further crisp the skin.
