Steps

  • 1

    Preheat the Traeger with the lid closed to 400°F; this will take about 15 minutes.

    400 ˚F / 204 ˚C

  • 2

    In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, garlic, and red pepper flakes.

  • 3

    Drizzle the chicken thighs with the olive oil and season on both sides with the Traeger Chicken Rub, black pepper, and ancho chile powder.

  • 4

    Place the seasoned chicken thighs directly on the grill grates. Insert the probe horizontally into the thickest part of a thigh. Close the lid and cook, flipping once, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, about 15 minutes per side.
